Combiplan Six 6.5x9cm J Lane Glass Plates loaded by Nokton48, on Flickr

This is six dummy Jason Lane 6.5x9cm Glass Plates, loaded into a Combiplan Rack now properly adjusted. I have a lot of Plaubel Makina Glass Plate Holders, purchased in various bundle deals. And quite a few Makina Holders are loaded ready to go. About ASA 1 with most developers I have tried. Fun ahead. Need some more liter graduates for stop and fix. For small runs this will be great, planning to use PMK+

My plans for Combiplan Dev Tanks 1 by Nokton48, on Flickr

Went to World of Used Photography yesterday, bought these two matching Combiplan Developing Tanks. Up to now I have been developing rotary using JOBO 2500 series, working good for me for really big runs. Wanted something smaller, more like dipn'dunk, daylight lid is a plus. My thought is to load my European size films (six at a time), then drop into dev tanks, cover on. I checked in the store, ran water and the dev tank dosen't leak when inverted. The tank labeled stop bath DOES leak when inverted, so would be good as a small deep tank. On the left front is a rack of 6.5cmx9cm XRAY film, on the right is six sheets of 9x12cm B&W (this rack has all the pieces and is complete). I just won one more Combiplan, complete unbroken, with all the original parts, from Germany. That gives me three tanks and racks to configure in different ways for different processing runs. Any thoughts on Complan use from out there?
 
SONY DSC by Nokton48, on Flickr

This is my 7.3cm Orthar, it fits screw-mount Plaubel Makinas. It takes the same filter as the 100mm lenses, which is good. I've been told it's a 4/4 Double Gauss optical design. Best not wider than F11 for best results. Plaubel made an optical finder which slipped over the standard one. Great for wide angle shooting with III or IIIR handheld.
