Default Hello from Portugal

Hello good friends,

I found your forum while googling for densitometric curves in photography and zone system. This looks like a place where I can learn a lot.

For about a year I develop my own B&W film and enlarge it to RC paper (is this the correct English term?). Recently I started experimenting with fiber paper (went great) and retouching (where I failed miserably). Usually I shoot with a Canon new F1 with a 50mm 1.4 lens and carried a Minox 35 GT everyday until I changed it for a Minolta XA which has more reliable results. From time to time, I do a couple of 120 rolls.

I'm enjoying Rollei RPX 400 in Xtol 1:1 in Adox RC paper but I'm open for suggestions.

Hope I introduced myself correctly. Feel free to ask me whatever you want since I'll ask whatever I don't know and can't find

Best regards from Portugal,
Tiago Moura

Hi Tiago.

All initial posts are hidden from the general membership to avoid spammers but unfortunately we missed taking your post out of that black hole until now.


Welcome aboard!

It is good to hear of another darkroom in use


Sorry again for the delay!

Cheers, Bob.

Darn... You posted during a week when I was in Porto - Had loads of questions to ask and could have done with a few tips (in exchange, I could have offered a crash course in retouching).
