Fun with Plaubel Makina 67 (and other 6x7 cameras)...

[Godfrey]

Okay, time to get off the song of acquiring the Makina 67 and getting through the process of getting it functional.

My order of fresh film arrived (Kodak Tri-X Pro Pack, Cinestill XX 5 pack). I tried the Cinestill first and had to guess at the correct development time for my existing mixed dilution at 1:49 @ 68°F ... I went with 9.5 minutes and it came out just this side of perfect, if a little contrasty.

The detail in this negative is superb, despite the film not being the actuance champion of the western world.

Enjoy!

Nice work G.....wait until you see results with Delta 100/Tmax100/ or....Agfapan 25 (if you can find some).
Such a stellar lens! Glad you got it all fixed up

Plaubel Makina 670 is a winner indeed! 20x24" darkroom print from TMax100 neg.
