Hi,
I'm just starting out in alternative processes
and I want to make some 8x10 negs from my 4x5 negs so that I can do some contact
printing on platinum paper.
Can anyone suggest the best method for this? I
was considering using Kodak's direct duplicating film but I'm put off by the
cost. Is there a cheaper option?
I've been told that I can use lith film in a
Bromophen solution 1to3. Does anyone know if that will give me good results?
What dev times do I use?
Any help will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
Mike.

Mike,
Look to the Bostick and Sullivan home page. They have a nice and fast
interpositive method that uses PMK Pyro. WWW.BOSTICK-SULLIVAN.COM
