I meant, really, large format. Capes, dark slides and suchlike. It's the way I am leaning to at present. Just bought a Jobo processor from our lovely NHS. They got it for an O.T. unit and never used it. It will do all my 35mm, MF and potential LF needs for the forseeable future. Won't tell you what I paid, you'll just start crying..... m
