4x5 Lenses

[Anthony Martinez]

Pat,

I've got them out and cleaned off. Everything I got from you has been put to good use this week for sure! I guess my question is if I do inversion developing like I do my smaller formats, or if I need to dig through and find the roller base (which I believe is for the Cibachrome stuff, but should still roll the Jobo just fine) to use? Merry Christmas to you too.

I used the inversion method, but the roller would work also. If you used the roller, the time probably will be a little shorter.One thing I remember is if you invert vigerously, occasionally a sheet would pop out, touch another sheet, and not develop properly.
Good luck...4X5 is a blast.

Sorry. I won't be back until the 5th or so.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I shot a few frames of my grandparents today, we'll see how those came out. I definitely screwed up one of them, but I suppose that's part of the learning process.

That's no problem at all, I don't go back to school until the 17th.
