Tech pan was know for being grain-free, however the slow ASA kept it from being a good general-purpose film. I used it a lot for copy work... |

Stainless steel reels, or those plastic ones where you "worked" the roll on from the outside to the center? When I conquered the ss reels and loaded film without any crimps, undeveloped area, or resulting 'half-moons', I thought I was king of the world! |

Stainless steel reels, or those plastic ones where you "worked" the roll on from the outside to the center? I don't know about real "plastic", I had two of my father's 1947-1950 vintage bakelite tanks which did a great job and were quite smooth loaders. Then sometime around 1968 I got a stainless tank with the notorious wire spiral holder which could be a royal PIA. When I conquered the ss reels and loaded film without any crimps, undeveloped area, or resulting 'half-moons', I thought I was king of the world! Yup! -- Regards, Savageduck |

Now try doing that in the trunk to a Volvo sometime because it's the only place to which you have access that is dark enough after your changing bag blew away. Well, the next time I develop film in my car I'll remember that. -- Michael |

I've loaded bulk film into cassettes while inside a wardrobe. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
