After getting a Rondinax 35U and being quite impressed with its ease of use (Though motorised would be nice :D ) and with the imminent arrival of my Moskva 4 , Unless the Moskva 2 lands first :rolleyes: I've just snagged a Rondinax 60 of Eb*y . Anyone have any experience with one of these ? as it looks to be a tad more involved when it comes to loading the film on to the spiral .

(first - more power to you, seriously)

What is the deal with the Rodinaux tanks? I just don't see their appeal - I've never had problem with the right technique, with the right equipment, loading film onto reels in paterson-style tanks.

good luck on finding info,

Always wanted one, never heard any bad words about one. I dont think there is any risk of a clinch mark.

Alas I got a resonable darkroom and it changes life...

I have no problem loading standard reels , just a temporary darkroom thats a pain in behind to get set up :D I bought the 35U on a whim as it was cheap but find I quite enjoy just popping the cassette into the tank , hooking up the film and then loading and developing it , all done on the kitchen drainer in broad daylight , No blacking out the utility room . One day I will have a permanent darkroom but its not possible atm.

well, a changing bag handles the light-tight part. then I do the rest in the daylight, of course. there is no need for a permanent darkroom for film processing. but a chacun son chose...
