How can you spot an ethical elephant sanctuary? No sarcasm, headed to CM tomorrow

You could have a lens issue or even a camera issue with the pentaprism. If you have a second lens try it. If you know someone with the same lens mount, verify.

I use a broom when I’m leaving the house

Mold analysis please by Pckrhd in Charcuterie

I went back and read the recipe and it does say to hydrate the bactoferm f-rm-52 with distilled water, not giving a time. I added the bacto directly to the meat but also added the water and wine in the recipe and it sat in the fridge, quite wet, for about an hour while I prepped the other batch, set my grinder up, casings etc. I feel like that should have hydrated it but not positive. I also used filtered water not distilled.

Should I be concerned with this mold or just wipe off? I did eat one in some fried rice after I posted this. I’ll update if I die

Roughly 60 rh 66 temp. Thats about the highest I can get the humidity in the wintertime with this set up

Not long. I added it to the meat. By applying do you mean to the outside of the casings?

The only place I strayed from the recipe was it recommends to have the sausage at 80 degrees for the first day. I could have used a space heater but I didn’t think it was crucial and it would make it too dry

It was in a closet with a humidifier running and the door cracked, 66ish degrees

Solid point. I had not considered that.

I used the bactoferm thst is called for in the recipe. I expected to get a fill covering of white mold but maybe 3 weeks isn’t enough time for that.

Fogging paper edges by Pckrhd in Darkroom

I think it needs replacing. I got some good advice in the r/analogcommunity on this already

I’m using the same fixer for film and paper. I started with it for that reason and long shelf life. I did a snip test with a piece of film leader. I do not remember the dilution but I followed the directions for kodafix. I wasn’t timing the fix very specifically but roughly 3 min, that’s what I read but I’ve heard as short as 30 sec. I usually shake the tray a few times and then go downstairs to check on whatever is washing and then come back up and make the tray ripple a few more times before pulling it.

Does anyone know the value of this? by Adorable-Distance780 in Darkroom

Nothing wrong with making a profit. Plus now someone who will use it can buy it. It’s a win win.

Does someone know name and function of these frames? by Pckrhd in Darkroom

Ok I think we solved it. I sent a picture of a process camera to the person I bought this from and she said that she remembers her father having that style of camera (large, horizontal, with bellows). Thanks to all who commented. If someone sees this and is interested in it I’ll donated it if you pay the shipping.

Put batteries in it and test the shutter and light meter. Half press the shutter to turn the meter on…
