Hi Matt, I don’t. know what you mean with a 50’ Lomotank. But I noticed, after loading 15 meter tanks for many years clockwise, the 30 meter tank needed to be loaded turning anti-clockwise. The spiral turns the opposite direction. Maybe try turning the other way round?
For ever remembering Gena Rowlands, and her anti-clockwise spirit.

I believe I have all the correct spacers for the tank. I hear there's a manual somewhere online, in Russian but highly illustrated. I can get the film threaded but am having difficulty spooling film onto the tank's spiral reels. Every YouTube video makes this look incredibly easy but I keep bending the film and jumping the track/groove. looking to hand process with a cleaner image — Matt -- Frameworks mailing list [email protected] https://mail.film-gallery.org/mailman/listinfo/frameworks_film-gallery.org -- Frameworks mailing list [email protected] https://mail.film-gallery.org/mailman/listinfo/frameworks_film-gallery.org
