I was contacted by a company getting rid of it and it for free. It is in Montebello, near L.A., CA. Here is what they wrote: "Acti process camera along with Carlson Gamma 3 unit and Lumax Pulsed Xeon lighting we’re interested in giving away if some is interested." If interested, write me direct and I will send you their contact info. w1000w@aol.com I'd put it at the Large Format Forum, but they banned me probably a decade+ ago...twice! PLEASE...if you don't know what a process camera is, don't waste my time or theirs. It was used in the graphic arts industry before there were scanners.

If you don't need to adjust the stool much, then a regular lever action stool is fine. I am always adjusting the stool for working on different shelf heights, so I sprung for the pricier 'ring adjusting' doctor's model. It is what they use in the medical field. It has an adjustment ring, so you don't have to hunt for the lever. Love it! If you are tall, get the taller version. This one goes down to 16.5 inches at the low point. As long as you are thinking ergonomics, get yourself a heavy duty electric adjusting worktable or three. I don't have one, but I think about it every few days when my back hurts and wish I did have one. It is on the 'to buy' list along with a workhouse and Lasergraphics Director scanner...as soon as the lotto hits! <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D.

50 spam emails received in 5 hours! This was 2022. That was about the height of spam email barrages. It has gotten a lot better since then. Maybe AI fixed AOL? Don't know. It is not a big deal to me because SPAM email is just one of the thousands of areas I work in with the archive. This is what happens when you put your email address out there. Around 2021 I stopped archiving these types of emails individually. I would only archive them in bulk amounts when something notable like this happened. Individual spam emails would only be archived when they were of a more personal nature with some time and thought put into them. I got into collecting spam way back, but it was not early enough. I may have started around 2017, but I missed a lot of good spam emails from back in the day. I was getting agitated from all the spam email and one day I decided to archive it instead of getting mad. I had got an email similar to this one below around 2015-16, but I did not save it. I used the name of the email With Due Respect Beloved One to name an artist book I was doing. That spurred me into collecting spam. Years later I got a spam email by that same name. with due respect beloved one Mon, 21 Feb 2022 19:20 JANET (j48174194@gmail.com) To:you + 1 more Details I know that this message will be a surprise to you, my name is Mrs. Janet Gay Markham, I am diagnosed with ovarian cancer which my doctor have confirmed that I have only some weeks to live so I have decided to handover the sum of ($3.5 Million Dollar) in my account to you for the help of the orphanage homes and the needy ones, Please kindly reply me here as soon as possible to enable me give you more information but before handing over my details to you please assure me that you will only take 30% of the money and share the rest to the poor orphanage homes. Thanks waiting to hear from you Mrs. Janet Gay I had heard people can rent spam email template and bulk email address lists to send out the spam. Seems true, I sometimes get the same exact spam email days in a row with only the sender's address being changed. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D.

When I was out shooting projects, I always kept a close eye on the weather. Generally, I worked outdoors. The other day I wondered how accurate the weather predictions are and I did a test on them. I recorded the weather prediction from March 5 though the 18, 2025 to compare. Here are the predictions along with the actual weather for March 17 & 18, 2025 so you can see how things turned out.

Send in samples of what you are working on. Global slider is just part of it. Hand contrast grading is a big deal. (Dodging and burning.) You can easily turn up the blacks and lose shadow detail. Or it may throw off the color. Do they make movie software where you can dodge and burn spots by hand? But how would it carryover to the next frame if things move? You would have to adjust frame by frame. Forget the time, timing continuity is hard to do it in dozens or hundreds of adjustment spots on complex jobs. (See below.) This has sharpness, blacks, shadow and contrast slider adjustments as well as tons of dodging and burning adjustments. 1-1/2 hours of Lightroom! You can't do that frame by frame. It is too much. You won't get anywhere near what I did with this raw scan with sliders alone. I wasn't finished yet...this is just some of the adjustments! <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D.

I had some old seeds I had bought in 2009. I was not going to plant them. I bought them to make sprouts. I made some sprouts but got lazy and stopped. I had them stored in the freezer and fridge. I was cleaning things out and thought I'd toss the seeds. But before trashing them I tested them for viability. I'm always testing things. Besides scanner, my middle name should be tester.

Vaccumate was one of those film preservation treatments they did back in the day along with Vaporate. This sample of a Vaccumate treated film is marked with a 3. Maybe they had different versions. It is all just guess work. I could not find out anything about either treatment. Although you can't see it in the scan, the Vaporate film did seem to have a matte finish applied to the stock. I did not see any difference to Vacuumate treated film versus untreated film. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.

Thanks for all the info, Patrick! I'm not into any of that at all. I run an open content, hi image quality archive...it is more or less all free. If someone writes me and wants something huge res or the original scans and it takes research, time and mailing a disc then it cost something for shipping and handling; maybe $10 - $15 or so. But none of my stuff is for commercial use, because of all the hassles with legalities. I use this... Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 I'll post a piece someday about Getty Images. They take an image off of L.O.C. for free and charge up to $499 for it. Anyone could get it for free if they knew it was at the L.O.C. Well, money makes the world go round, huh. Money is stored energy. If you have excess $ you could buy a Lasergraphics Director with all the bells and whistles! I just bot 3 lotto tickets today! Wish me luck.

I was scanning a small collection of The American Girl magazines from the 1940s. The magazines were kinda rough, so I was scanning by hand on a flatbed scanner instead of a sheetfed scanner. If I was using a sheetfed scanner I may have not seen the ad. For some reason this ad by Dell Tween caught my eye and it made me wonder when the word tween was first used. I Googled it and AI said it was the late 1980's. I hope they don't put AI in charge of the nukes. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D.

I read that HDD's lose magnetism over time and they must be re-recorded periodically to preserve the data. On 3.8.2025 I tested a retired Toshiba 500gb HDD that was formatted and filled up about 98% capacity with photos and videos on 2.17.2015. After it was retired, it was put in a ziplock bag and stored in a garage where temperatures ranged from 45F to 85F for the 10-year period. It was not run during that time. When I looked at it, all the data (photos / videos) were fine. I didn't do any drive software tests on it, as I didn't have any to use. I downloaded some drive software awhile back and it took over my computer, so I was happy to get rid of it. I archive audio, photos, videos and text files. Either they work or they don't work...those are the tests I'm using here. I then decided to do a microwave test on the HDD. I had originated this use of microwaving drives by accident. Last year I had ordered a 4TB Samsung SSD and it had problems from the start. But I was hopeful the bugs would work out and tried to use it anyway. I was transferring a 1.8TB file to it and it jammed near the end of the transfer. I was horrified to find out it would not let me delete my data before sending it back for a refund. Hence the microwave came into my head. It was a natural offshoot from using the microwave to treat moldy and mildewed paper, which I do regularly. I can't tell you how long this original microwave test was on the 4TB SSD, but it was just a few seconds. I didn't know what would happen or if it would wreck the microwave, so it was short. When I plugged the SSD into the computer it would not show up. I was happy with the results and gave it a little more microwave radiation after that for good measure. All we hear about nowadays is EMP danger with digital, so that also inspired me to do some microwave tests. Here are the tests for the HDD, SD card and thumb drives tested in a 1000-watt Samsung microwave. Toshiba 500gb HDD 1 second microwave test: Passed (I don't think the microwave does much microwaving in the first second.) 2 second microwave test: Passed 3 second microwave test: Failed - drive made a loud pop and sparks near the cord port. Computer would not recognize the drive. (Drive was microwaved without the cord.) Generic 4GB SD Card 1 second microwave test: Passed (I don't think the microwave does much microwaving in the first second.) 2 second microwave test: Passed 3 second microwave test: Passed / Failed (?) Some sparks. One computer would not recognize about 80% of the files and they only showed up as icons. When I clicked on an icon it would not load and it said the file was corrupted. Another computer played everything fine. 4 second microwave test: Failed - card made lots of sparks, plastic started to melt in spots on both sides of the card and there was a strong burned plastic smell. Both computers would not recognize the drive. Note: This test should be rerun with multiple cards for 3, 4, 5, 6 second tests to pinpoint the failure. I used 1 card and it received a total of 9 seconds of microwaving before it failed. (Not counting the 1 second test.) Generic 8GB Thumb Drives I used 2 thumb drives for this test. Thumb drive #1 1 second microwave test: Passed (I don't think the microwave does much microwaving in the first second.) 2 second microwave test: Failed - drive made an audio sound when inserting into the USB port, but the computer would not recognize it. I tried it on 2 computers. Thumb drive #2 3 second microwave test: Failed. Drive made a loud pop and sparks inside of the USB connector. Both computers would not recognize the drive. The rest of the HDD magnetism tests will be 12-year, 15-year, 18-year, 20-years and 22-years...if I'm still around. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D.

Forgot to mention... The 30-35 seconds microwave time I mentioned above is for matte paper. For coated gloss paper stock, you may need less time. Coated gloss stock gets hot faster the matte paper. Try 25 seconds each side for coated gloss stock as a starting point. Every job is different...TEST!

Here are the some of the other tests... Cine' Text Size & Color Tests D.D.Teoli Jr. A.C. : D.D.Teoli Jr. A.C. : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive I've also got some res tests of film clips, but they have not surfaced yet. I've got thousands of things at the I.A. and depend on their search function to find it. OP, besides your film IQ, you need to check title quality at different res. The color of text changes and the readability can break down at lower res.

Back in the day there was this doctor on eBay that would butcher porn films and sell them 'by the scene.' He found out he could get more for a reel if he cut it up than if he sold it whole. Well, this was John Holmes films, so there was that. I don't know what kind of doctor he was, but he was the surgeon of films, so to speak. Here is Pond5. They sell you short film clips by the second if you need stock footage. I didn't explore them much and know nothing about them. Just enough to take some screenshots. Prices depend on res. Everything is sold in short clips; say 6 to 12 seconds more or less. What impressed me was their upfront way to sell film clips. Very easy to see lots of material and the prices. Click on images to enlarge. I was curious what they had for stag films. This was what a quick search came up with. I love the old stag (sex) films. They have it all...history, fashions, people, sex...plus there is usually no copyright crap to deal with. Only drawback is they are usually very low q. They have been duped to death. The couple of stag film clips they had, had no sex...but I didn't look at them all. Some people make titles and sell them...by the second. These are 6 seconds each. These are examples of higher res prices. I don't know where things are with the legal with Pond5. Stock photo companies used to want you to sign your life away with model releases to sell photos. There was a photographer that would take photos of people on the street. Then he would try to get model releases from them on the spot to sell the photos to stock footage companies. Jesus, what a terrible way to make money. I'd give up photography if I had to do that. When I shot this...I just didn't shoot this. I shot this same scene many times, with tons of people walking up to the bear over a few minutes period. I can't imagine asking all those people for model releases. Photo: D.D.Teoli Jr. Well, whether you are buying or selling, maybe Pond5 will be helpful for some of you. Looks like they deal in all sorts of things for the filmmaker. <><><><> Daniel D.

If YT, you have to check your viewing setting is set to highest resolution. 2K should be great. I had done lots of resolution tests, but can't find them on I.A. One was in color and very important. The color tests show how color changes and breaks down with lower res. I.A.'s search function is just so-so. I did find one set of res tests for titles.

Thanks Dan! I did search for it for a short time. That is how I found it by accident. I always like to let the members add their .02. For the historical record so to speak, before they kick off. People are always kicking off and all that history within them is lost. This is a discussion forum after all, so we discuss. People always say search Google. You can spend hours searching and still not get the answer you can get in a few minutes from a forum. Besides that, I don't have a lot of time to spend on any one area, Dan. In addition to photography, I work in a humongous number of areas of archival preservation. This is just the 'C' section... My problem, Dan, is I have too much curiosity and interests and not enough time, space or $$ to do it all. So, I put some of you to work for me. Thanks again Dan for your input.
