Develop all prints in the darkroom,then scan the prints for uploads to the American LF group of which I have been a member for 10 or more years.

Thanks for the kind words, the film I use if Fuji HRT green
I develop in trays with glass to cover the deeper slots( more developer)
I have taken over a year to sort the light leaks from my Kodak 2D 10x8
the resulting negs are 150% better than my first initial results, my flicker page
has some of the early work with a dark area central of the print had me stumped where it was coming from!

I had the same prob with my Marion 10x12 when I was playing with Rocklands tintype, turns out the faceplate locking nut I was leaving out, because of pure laziness, caused a leak. I have been using half speed Agfa blue, have just got two boxes of green, but havent used them yet.

Hi Barry,
Nice to see another Kodak 2D user here. I also like xray film but have not used it for a while. I might start a Xray thread some every body can share there thought and results.
