Hi Leicaphiles...I've been lurking here for over 2 months now and must say
this is most informative and helpful. I have a couple questions for you
all...

Does anyone know how long to develop Agfa APX-100 or APX-25 in D-76? Also I
am about to use my first gallon of Rodinal. I've been shooting a lot of B&W
lately with my IIIF. Yes, some of us still use screw mount. I love mine. The
old Elmars do great, even if old issues.

Also, it has been suggested to me that it is preferrable to leave the shutter
cocked during storage, as the curtains will be wound on a larger diameter
form, and will then be less prone to cracking. I realize this may weaken the
spring over time, but that is easier to adjust than a re-curtain job. Any
thoughts?

Thanks again guys, and I wish more SM users would come out of the
closet...Good Shooting, Bob
