Aaron:
What is a top line colour darkroom going for these days?
I mean something absolutely high end. Lets go the whole nine
yards here. I want to be able to make archival colour prints
that are second to none. The formats I have in mind would be
35mm, 6x7cm, and 4x5 inch. I don't need to process my own film,
though it would be nice, but I want to be able to make prints in
the range of 16x20. I don't want a jobo processor either. I want
something I can feed a sheet of paper into at one side, and have
it come out the other side, just like my computer printer. Oh
yes, how much of my basement will I have to give over to this?
Will I even be able to put a 20" Kreonite in my basement?
Anyway, what would all this cost, brand new?
Thanks
William Robb
