Technically it's possible -- Eyemo flange to focal distance is 1.5" and Nikon is 46.5mm -- but it would have to slide internally into the Eyemo mount, and most Nikon lenses have a shroud around the rear element (and preset levers) that will get in the way. An aside: when Nikon introduced their SL

That is being hard on Chambless! Look here. Filled with both misinformation and ridiculous prices. (I like the movement for the “hand-cranked” Wall camera — given that the Wall was a 35mm single-system sound camera.) http://www.calkovsky.com On Mar 8, 2014, at 6:19 PM, Scott Dorsey wrote:

Yes! I think I got a 21mm fixed-focus Wollensak from him for $10, and a 135mm Miltar for $20. He seemed like a good fellow. Is he another Chambless? --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com

It is possible to mount a Nikon lens on the Eyemo without machining away the existing mount and JUST BARELY have it focus to infinity. However, Calkovsky Camera and Lens at 707-658-2628 has a vast array of original new-in-box Eyemo lenses selling for next to nothing and I would recommend just buyi

Here's a relatively old projector spec and already it specifies that h264 compression in an .mov or .mp4 container are supported. That's close to optimal except maybe in Linux; you might give those profiles a shot. http://www.optomausa.com/support/discontinued-products/detail/ml500 On Mar 8, 2014

I think Kodak discontinued making the T-max kit a few years back, which is one of the reasons why I process as a negative and then make my prints using kodak 7203 print stock. But you can still process as a reversal and there are recipes out there to make your own bleach for reversal processing.
