[pinhole-discussion] 120-220-620 film? Oatmeal part II
Hello: 1) What's the difference between/among 120, 220, and 620 film? 2) Anyone use film in oatmeal box rather than photopaper? What kind? Thanks Murray
Re: [pinhole-discussion] slit cameras?
Hi Tom! Very nice! can you explain tmiller_hismaster? Would i be correct that the slit is at an angle? Was the original object a flat sign? This was a stationary slit image?

Re: [pinhole-discussion] slit cameras?
Andy, It's like in the real life. Ask any crooked slit how they became crooked and they will tell you that when they were a kid they used to be straight. But then they had these friends who would go out in the bars late at night, etc... You know the story...! It's the same thing all the time. I hope that you'll keep a close eye on your slits when you get some. Don't let them go out past 8:00 PM!

[pinhole-discussion] What is Lith Printing? Lith Printing 101
Hi Leezy, You asked for it, so here it is: Lith Printing 101! A bit long but thorough... Lith printing is a process which allows you to produce wonderful color shades on chlorobromide-silver emulsion BW fiber-based paper (e.g. Forte PolyWarmtone) using highly diluted Lithographic developer.. With this process, and depending on the type of paper you use (Forte vs Luminos vs Foma), the shadows will print in dark earth tones and the mid-tones will print in peach or olive-green shades. The effect will be somewhat similar to split toning. Further tones can be achieved with selenium or gold toning and/or with advanced chemistry kits. 1. THE PROCESS The paper is overexposed by several stops under the enlarger and then processed for a period of between 8 to 20 minutes - with constant agitation - in highly dilute Lith developer (Kodalith A+B will do, but there are some more sophisticated developer available) which has been contaminated with some oxidized Lith developer saved from the previous session. The image does not start to form on the paper until something like 5 minutes in the developer. (You really need to have a CD player in your darkroom because this can be awfully boring...) The image then builds up very gradually until a rather special reaction begins to occur in the shadow areas, spreading slowly then rapidly to the mid-tone and eventually the highlights. The art is to anticipate when the reaction will be just enough for your print to be a gallery print but not so much that it turns into a garbage print... You usually only have a few seconds to make that choice. The trick is that the contrast of the print will markedly increase (or sometimes diminish) when the print moves from the developer tray and sits in the fix bath for a few seconds... Then and only then can you tell if you've got a good print or a bad print. The other trick is that the developer oxidizes rapidly both because it is in the open and because it is used to process prints. Which means that the second print you process in the tray will not look like the first one... So you always have to be on the lookout for what is happening in the developer tray. Another peculiarity of this process is that exposure time controls the contrast of your print and processing time controls the lightness or darkness of the print. So you don't use any filtration in the enlarger to control contrast. The longer you expose under the enlarger, the less contrasty your print will be and vice-versa. This means that you can achieve contrast grades far in excess of Grade 5. Sometimes this will allow you to turn an apparently unprintable negative into a beautiful print! Weird... but you get accustomed to it. 2. EXAMPLES OF LITH PRINTING You've seen examples of what can be done with this process on my exhibition site at: http://music.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?ean=74646304624 and on Erich's Fotair site at: http://www.fotair.de/ You obviously want also to see our own Robert Mann's outstanding pinhole work at: http://www.thencamenow.com/ I also recommend checking the beautiful prints at the Moersch Photochemie's site: http://www.moersch-photochemie.de/html_english/index_english.htm For more detailed information, check SilverPrint's web site: What is Lith Printing? http://www.silverprint.co.uk/whatis.html This shows significant extracts from Tim Rudman's key book The Master Photographer's Lith Printing Course. This is the bible for anybody involved in this process. 3. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS Please take note that this process is not cheap. Chlorobromide-silver paper is expensive and some of the fine Lith developers need to be imported from Europe at significant cost. One Canadian firm distributes the excellent Moersch Developer (Eight Elm Photo at http://www.eightelmphoto.com/ and they would likely be very happy to ship in the US). Please take note that Lith Printing is an addictive process. Once you begin, you won't be able to turn back to traditional BW printing. If you go this route, please warn your spouse of the dangers that you will frequently erupt from the darkroom screaming and cursing the world and occasionally come out in a state of pure ecstasy from seeing what you can do to an otherwise unprintable negative. Hope this answers your questions and it this will entice you into this marvelous darkroom process... -:)) Cheers, Guy

The ancients meet the moderns! ...-:)) Some time ago, I gave a pinhole workshop and one of the participant was using a 35mm Nikon digital camera with a pinhole on the bodycap. This is the easiest, if you happen to have a digital camera with interchangeable lenses or if you can have access to one. He had some interesting results, but if my memory is correct, there was a fair amount of noise on the images due to the low levels of light hitting the digital emulsion. He had posted some images on the web, but I seem to have lost the URL.

RE: [pinhole-discussion] Upper Midwest Pinhole Get-together - Wow
Tom - sounds like you guys had an exciting time - an impressive gathering and program. Thanks for letting us know how things turned out. Gregg -Original Message- From: Tom Miller [mailto:twmil...@mr.net] Sent: Monday, November 05, 2001 10:47 AM To: pinhole-discussion@p at ??? Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Upper Midwest Pinhole Get-together - Wow Dear All, Bill Erickson and I would like to thank all who participated in yesterday's Pinhole: Informal Forum, also known as the Upper Midwest Pinhole Get-together, at the pARTs Photographic Arts Gallery in Minneapolis. The event was a success and an inspiration for both presenters and attendees. Also thanks to Gregg Kemp for providing internet space on his site and in the Pinhole Visions for the for forum announcement. Chris Faust presented work from a series he created about ten years ago that placed pinhole cameras in the perspective of a child and viewed the world from this playful vantage point. His work included an 360-degree, 18 foot long print taken from the inside of a playpen by a Cirkut camera fitted with a zone plate. This image is also in Pinhole Journal, vol 12 #3. List member Eric Nelson discussed how he incorporates pinhole photography into his junior high art classes. He also showed several of his own and his students' images. Derrick Burbul, from the University of Minnesota, Duluth, showed his multi-pinhole camera that takes five 4x5 exposures at once, as well as images made with the camera. John Campbell (http://www.pinholeday.org/2001/photo_79.html) showed his work done mostly with pinholes mounted on Leicas and also on a Nikon digital camera. Andrew Kamin (www.pinholeplanet.com) demonstrated his prototype dual focal length 4x5 camera and showed several transparancies made with this camera. Bill Erickson presented several platinum prints and a cyanotype from recent travel to Ireland. Attendees who stayed for the question/answer/network session saw some of my dual-slit color photos from the Iconclast series. The pARTs Gallery staff was excited by the enthusiastic turnout. I'll be working with them on the possibility of having pARTs be a local / regional center for next year's Pinhole Day.

[pinhole-discussion] slit cameras?

Can you say more about slit cameras, or where to find out more about them? I noticed them in the description of an upcoming pinhole workshop here[at PCNW in Seattle], but I won't be able to attend.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Upper Midwest Pinhole Get-together - Wow
Bravo, Tom! I wish I could have been there. It must have been really great to see all this work and the people who actually did it. Keep up this great work and indeed try to get it lined up with the 2nd Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day on April 28, 2002.

[pinhole-discussion] digital panoramic strip camera
This is a site on converting a scanner into a digital camera. The site below used lenses, but one could do this with a pinhole. It makes a digital panoramic strip camera with a scanner. http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/text-better-scanner-cam.html Gord Jack Duganne wrote: Greetings!
