>>4197692I cut a straight diagonal to make it easier to load. I cut leaders square after I finish a roll so I know the roll has been shot. I reuse canisters for bulk loading based XX.
>>4197764Dang bruh, you should at least develop bw at home. Even the muh time is valuable argument doesn't add up as I bet it takes less time to develop a roll than it does to drop off and pick up from your lab.
>>4197771You can get a Bronica SQ-A kit with lens, back, and prism/wlf for $350-$500. Additional lenses are <$100. Backs are expensive so try to get as many as you need in the kit you buy. I've had my sqa for 20 years with no issues.
Fuck Kiev, Bronica is way more reliable and better. Fuck the rb67, it's huge and you won't use it. Fuck the people giving you fixed lens options with non-exchangeable backs. Just buy a god damn bronica sq-a. Pic related.
