This was a pain in the hole to load for the first time, but so far I already like it better than the Stearman Press tank…looking forward to seeing how these first 6 sheets came out. Also my first foray into HC-110 dilution B. 270 ml solution made with 8.5 ml of concentrate. Running for 10:40 at 17.9°.
My first few sheets of #TriX in the Graflex are nice and dense. Much denser off the bat compared to the Arista 100 I’ve finally finished working through. Two more exposures to go - have to wait for Sir-Leaks-A-Lot to dry out…
Two of the sheets look like I could’ve slid them further into the film holders. Will need to keep that in mind as I load some for a trip to the mountains this weekend. Planning on taking some #FP4 as well as various other films for other formats.

Beautiful day for some fun with the #Graflex!

My Graflex RB Series B arrived home today after a full restoration. This is a 4x5 SLR camera and, based on the serial number, was manufactured 100 years ago in 1926. Can't wait to take it out shooting.

Finally got through cleaning, function-checking, and cataloguing a huge camera collection I fell into in the middle of last year. 131 cameras of all types made between 1900 and 2009. Some are in great shape, and some don't work at all (and a few probably never did).
After I photograph the collection more seriously, most will hit the market.
