If you are not careful, you will exhaust your developer.....! Too much film, not a big enough tank. The BTZS system is perfect for 1 or 2 sheets....testing, etc. BTW, the very best system to develop 4x5 film is the JOBO plastic tank + Reel in the automatic CPA or CPE bath. #2 is the same combo with manual rotation. Let me ask.... you did get the SS strap that fits around the reel? It holds the film inside the reel, without it, you will have problems..... Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net Yeah, I found a Nikkor 4x5 steel developing cannister (i.e. like the 35mm steel reel but on steroids). So saying goodbye to the BTZS kit. I hope some LF enthusiast finds me tomorrow. regards Vick On 11/3/2012 8:28 PM, Ken Carney wrote: > Someone ought to be glad to get the BTZS tubes.
