[pinhole-discussion] Light Sensative Systems Chemistry of Non Silver Halides photo process

2002-02-14 Thread ChrisM1111
Hi ,

I can get a few copies of this book if there is any interest. This appears to 
be blue typing but I am not chemist and don't know if there are other non 
blue print/ferrocyanide type things in it. I know I saw Diazo mentioned in 
it. Probably in th e45-50 dollar range. If I knew more chemistry I would buy 
it. I only wanted a simple ferrotype process, so I could make blue paper, and 
already figured out I bloew it, Ferric Ammonium Citrate is better served with 
an oxilate. ggrr.

well thats it gotta go

ciao

chris

Happy Valentine's Day everyone...

The new Merlin-XD pinhole camera is ready. You put the 
chemistry right in the camera to develop the pictures in room 
light or outdoors. Details can be found at 
www.paintcancamera.com

There's also a lot of good info on building cameras obscura 
and projects for teachers  students of pinhole photography 
to enjoy.

Cheers
Jim

Many thanks,

Hi Joao, 

Your U shaped film will result in good pictures. 
Film (b) and (c) will be well exposed than flat film's
peripheral area. U shape bottom makes smooth transition of film
plane.

Hi Ishikawa,

Thanks for the ilustration.
The camera is ready, I made it yesterday, and is almost exactly as you
pictured, I made it with cardboard.
The main diference is that film placed at the position a is also bended,
U shape.
The idea is producing a kind of a triptico (I don't know the name in
English).
I am not sure if it will work, but I'll give it a try and post the results
to the upload galery.
The next one will probably be a pvc cilinder with the film placed against
the wall, forming a cilinder.
Thanks for the help with the matter.

Joao

 Hi all friends,
 Happy Valentine!

Hey Zernike,

Happy Valentine to you too!  If my memory is correct, it is last year on
this day that you launched the idea of having a pinhole day which
ultimately materialized into the 1st Worlwide Pinhole Photography Day
and which will continue this year again with the 2nd WPPD on April 28!
Bravo!

Happy Valentine to all,

Guy

 I don't know how the angle of image cone is detemined. But I think
 it is equal to 2xArctan(d/t) where d is a diameter of pinhole, t is
 the thickness of pinhole-material.

Masaru,
 You are right, that is de formula that defines the geometric
cone, unfortunately, the USABLE image cone is much more smaller.  That is
why I disregarded pinhole thickness in my previous post.

Nice ASCII drawings, Masaru!

No problem, expose for a shorter period of time, develop for a longer period of
time.

You might be getting some flare from shooting toward the sun. this flattens
out contrast. Also maybe some fogging? It is said to be very difficult to
boost contrast with Ilford film. try tmax.
