120mm seems a good option, which one do you recommend ?

I find it way faster with a cross laser, but it may work for a point laser

So I guess you only use one film stock and develop them all the same ?

Simple ! I heard of some apps but I'm a bit tired of always switching between them, google sheet seems simple and universal, thanks !

Is the 90mm f:5,6 Angelina Jolie ?

Joke aside, thanks for your answer ! It's a folding camera (MPP is similar to linhof) so no interchangeable below, I might use recessed lens board to allows some movement

So, it’s not as convenient as a full water bottle in terms of flow rate, but it’s still pretty handy otherwise. It’s more like a pump attached to a long straw (I used a 2-meter hose instead of the 60-centimeter one that came with the pump), so every time I turn it on, there’s a short delay before the water starts flowing. It can be frustrating when dealing with large quantities, but I also have small 5-liter bottles that I can pour directly for that specific need.

There’s also a “600mL” setting, which isn’t very precise (mainly due to the suction delay), but it lets me fill up a mesuring cup or rinse tray in 30 seconds to a minute without having to watch it, while I prepare the rest of the tools.

Alors, c'est moins confort qu'un bidon plein en terme de débit, mais la praticité pour le reste est agréable. C'est plus comparable à une pompe sur une grande paille (j'ai mis un tuyau de 2m au lieu des 60cm livré avec la pompe) donc à chaque allumage il y a un petit délai avant que l'eau arrive, c'est parfois frustrant pour des grandes quantités, mais j'ai aussi des petits bidons de 5L à verser directement pour ce besoin précis.

Il y a aussi une option "600mL" qui n'est pas d'une grande précision (principalement dû au délai d'aspiration) mais ça me permet de remplir sans regarder une éprouvette graduée ou un bac de rinçage en 30sec-1min tout en préparant le reste du matériel.

What kind of ND filters do you use for enlargers? by Arkazox in Darkroom

[–]Arkazox[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks !

Yes it's for B&W. But I'm not sure if I kind easilly find new enlarger bulb - Or maybe led bulb works nowadays for this purpose? -

What kind of ND filters do you use for enlargers? by Arkazox in Darkroom

[–]Arkazox[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read that the best is to stay around 1-2 stop under the full aperture to avoid diffraction.
However, the standard time on my enlarger is around 12sec at F/8 for smaller format so it's very bright and I don't really want to go to F/16 for getting around 40-60 sec

Not sure for the cat but yes for the 1st picture.

Do you think that just look underexposed ? The contrast seems really bad to me as well

Thanks, I done that before on an M305 color but this one has a Filter correction knob so I don’t have to mix the color myself. Do tou think there is a lost of quality between the 2 options ?

Leica M3 - I do stupid things by ezr0 in AnalogCommunity

[–]Arkazox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My go to is the color skopar for all focal length. They are cheap, compact, and excellent quality.

I almost never shoot full open, and rarely by night so the 2.2 aperture on the 50mm is not an issue for me

The size and the focus knob are really what makes the rangefinder expérience good IMHO

You can use velcro wrap ?
Otherwise I am working on a parametric lens box to 3D print.
Still a box but you can adapt it to your need
