Yes, Castle Photo of Lansing, in business for over 25 years, is closing its doors. I did buy all my darkroom chemistry from them, but B&H and all the rest (meaning Adorama and a couple others) can't be beat for most items, including paper, even though it commands a premium in shipping 'cause it's quite heavy. Castle Photo was a great resource, though...

I hope someone can help me? I am new to large format photography and I am using a graflex 4x5 camera. The film I am using is Ilford 100. I process the film in a tray using D-76 1:1 for 13 min and I never stop rocking the tray, in addition I pull the bottom negitive and place it on the top and the negatives come out too light. What am I doing wrong? I...

I have been interested in LF cameras and bought two books on them. (I also took the NYIP course, and the old National Camera Camera Repair course - now defunct) but I have a few questions that I have wondered about. If you don't do your own developing and printing, how do you send the exposed pictures in to a lab? To take the picture you load the film...

Greetings all: I recently picked up a Polaroid 545 and some film, along with the requisite sodium sulfite and other goodies, and I have some questions about the sodium sulfite, but cannot find the answers anywhere! First, is whatever I put in the tray a one-shot use, or can I use the same solution for multiple negatives? How do I know when it's depleted?...

has anyone ever used the horseman 2x3 cameras for landscape work? i was considering either a pentax 534, or 67 system, but see that these systems are in the same ball park, cost-wise. i would--of course--love the movements available, and being able to use some lenses i already own, but have never used one, so i am looking for any experienced owner's...
