[Leica] Are Jobos better for developing sheet film... YES....Well if I re member right

["Birkey, Duane" <dbirkey@hcjb.org.ec>]

I'm a firm believer and user of the Jobo...  Whether they are better are not
is another question...

I remember an article in Photo Techniques... Maybe Mike can confirm this
one...

Anyhow... they were testing all sorts of ways to get the most even
developement possible... baskets, wires, hangers, tray,  one method is to
use a bunch of little pvc pipes with a sheet in each... 

Anyhow, the results as I remember them were that the Jobo Expert film drums
(the drum looks like a revolver with individual chambers for each sheet of
film)  provided the most even development of any of the methods..... ... but
the individual pvc pipes were cheaper... I have an expert film drum and I
like it...

To get this back on topic... I use my Jobo to develop film taken by with my
Leicas..... also I've partially updated my Leica pages and my homepage to
make it a bit more visually interesting and reduce the download time...
comments are always welcome...
