Finally some useful video on youtube. I'm sick of those who scan negatives and print photos on printer.

This is an excellent video...I was a professional colour darkroom tech for thirteen plus years ..and the only reason I bought the intrepid is for bw 4 X 5 negs...have not done colour yet with this led .. ..but the red / cyan component of the led and was discussed by the naked photog..interesting to see you having to add time and additional filter..almost like a cross curve issue

Excellent video, thank you. Very helpful for those of us who have just started printing with an Interepid.

This was really a helpful video as I am considering buying an Intrepid enlarger since I don't want to "roll the dice" on a old, used unit. Also, beautiful picture! Thank you for the effort and content.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video & would like to see more darkroom videos but for me I think I better stick to ink jet printing.

Thanks! 🙏🏻 Ink jet printing is also fun 👏🏻

Nice demonstration, which opens beautiful perpectives. I had learned 20 years ago, that you had to filter with only two. In this case Yellow and Magenta

Thanks! I am all about experimentations so curious to mess with Cyan too 🤔

But maybe with the LED, it’s completely different. Good luck@@AnalogueDiaries

This is really interesting, thanks. I noticed your final settings are similar to your previous video. I have the same chemicals and paper but I got way too much cyan with those settings with my first test. I wonder if the film used makes a difference, I’m using 35mm Fuji 200 which I think is just Kodak Gold now (known for generally warm tones) Are you heating your Chemistry to the recommended temperature?

Yes, my settings are similar to the previous video. The reason is Cinestill 800T in daylight and Vision3 500T in daylight - same film. Both were shot with 85B filter. That’s where the notes get very handy. Film definitely makes a difference. I haven’t printed Fuji film stocks yet, so the final settings can be very different. I have printed Portra in the past but that was before the timer firmware update. The chemistry is heated.

@@AnalogueDiariesThanks, beautiful shots (and prints) by the way. I’m hopefully going to do some more printing tonight and this video has been helpful.

@@AnalogueDiariesJust a follow up. I got a great print with C100 M090 Y088, so clearly the film type can make a big difference. I didn’t need any more accuracy as ‘the naked photographer’ was talking about, but I imagine you could expose the paper twice with different settings if you needed an in-between value. I would recommend cutting test strips to save paper, quite easy with a rotary cutter in the dark. Saves chemicals too when reusing them. I also have an Ilford motorised drum roller which makes things easier. I found out my 50mm Componon-S is actually sharpest at f/4.7 but I think this is normally f/5.6 for most 50mm lenses (35mm film). f/8 for 80mm lenses (for medium format). Hope this helps someone.

Niiice! 👏🏻 film does make difference indeed. Today I made some prints from Lomo 800 and ended up with totally different settings too. C100 M103 Y104 worked, I’ll test these settings with another roll and see if there is the same pattern with M and Y settings. I don’t like cut my paper because I wanna see the full image to make adjustments. It’s a generous use of paper and chemistry but I get to the final print quicker that way. So I guess it can be kinda the same at the end. What’s interesting is the exposure time. Do you also get longer exposures with Intrepid?

@@AnalogueDiaries As I was using f/4.7 I only needed 10 seconds for my best print. On my previous attempt I think either my chemicals were depleted or my temperature was off as I didn’t have a sous vide to keep them at 35C (sorry for UK temp). I was struggling to get dark blacks and experiencing fun but random colour shifts. That might have been the chems not covering the paper in the tube due to not enough curl. All good after mixing some new chemicals though. I put more in the tank too. My Cibachrome tank is slightly different to yours (version 1 I think) after some testing I worked out I can get around 150ml in before it overflows into the tank. Thank again for the video.
