I am a student currently working on an ambitious project building a transportable studio and darkroom in order to service rural and remote locations within Australia + NZ (and hopefully beyond). In order to realise this I need some help, I am interested in purchasing the following equipment if you are not currently utilising or may have them in storage or know someone who might:
- 4x5 and 8x10 Photographic Enlargers
- Film Drying Cabinets / RC Paper processors or dryers
- Film processing equipment both manual or automatic
- Range of large format enlarging lenses from 80-300mm
- 16x20, 20x24 or 30x40 inch easels and corresponding stainless developing trays
- F/stop Enlarging timers or other electronic timers
- Kodak LVT or other film recorders
- Digital scanning backs and accessories (Phase One, BetterLight, Pentacon, Zigalign)
- Drum scanners and high-end flatbed scanners
- 4x5 Studio cameras & studio stands (Toyoview, Cambo, Foba etc)
- Alignment tools and/or spare parts for all of above
- Any other relevant darkroom equipment
Donations would be fantastic! If you have anything or may be able to assist please do not hesitate to contact me via email (contact@thecontainerlab.com) or mobile (0423522316).
