Use Google and look for Soemarko's LC-1. It'd designed to yield continuous
tones from Ortho Litho film.

I've used Arista Ortho Litho sheet film and they recommended ISO of 1/3 to 3!
When I used 3, the negatives were very thin.

I bought a 4+ high lightweight plastic jar made for backpacking,
some famous name brand I can't remember. It was relatively
expensive, several dollars, but doesn't leak and I filled it with
water and rolled the negatives around the edge. They were against
each other, but didn't stick

hello list,

i mean, what size constitutes a pinhole? smaller than f/64? f/128?
and what about lens-less photography?

To all those who provided input to my website, thank you. Hopefully, all of
the thumbnails problems have been resolved and all my pictures can be
enlarged. Your continued input regarding my images, etc. are greatly
appreciated.
Thank you.

I think I was the member who gave the reciprocity figures for Type 55. Here
they are again:
I rate it at ISO 25 for the negative
Indicated exposure Correction factor Final exposure
8 seconds 2x 16 seconds
16 seconds
I simply sandwich my negatives in between store-bought baby wipes. They
are already moist and come packaged in a variety of sizes. I put them
in a ziplock baggy so they stay moist and have had no problems with this
method as of yet.

My question to those of you
tupperware works ok to a point. you have to be very careful about
scratching the film though.
the best solution is the clearing tanks that hold 10-12 sheets of film. i
bought two to take out in the field so i could keep the clearing solution in
one and use the other to wash. they're great.
You could try NOT processing the film in the field. If I remember correctly
you can push the dark slide
back in place and pull the film out of the holder without processing the film.
Once home you could put the film back in the holder and engage the processing
level and pull the film
through

does involve handling wet towels and sponge so that probably leaves the
Sodium S.
All suggestions will work, but just letting it dry and then re-wetting it
when you want to clear it worked OK for me.

If you use lith developer, you will get only blacks and whites. If you use
dektol1:2 you will get some shades of grey. It's easy to try other film or
paper developers since you can develop by inspection, just deelop until it
stops changing. I think you'll get more pleasing results using Dektol.
I never did find anything that worked well and kept the liquid within its
container. Even Tupperware containers will leak with enough agitation. The
process got messy to the point where using Type 55 in the field no longer made
sense to me.

I always had trouble with Tupperware leaking, and it's a pain to carry
around in the wooks. Calumet photo carries a holding tank. I did quick
search but could'nt find it. I'm sure is you spent some time you could.

Yes, this has been on my mind, too. I was thinking
maybe a Tupperware container of the right size?
My question to those of you who use Type 55 in the
field is this, How do you
keep the negative moist until you get home
Thanks

While the focus is on discussion of Typ55 Polaroid films, I have a question.
Once I press the process lever on my 4X5 film holder and pull and wait
the amount of time needed to develop correctly , I then peel apart the
'pod(?) and seperate the negative from the positive print , and wash in
