Carlos,
Is film flatness the main advantage for using a film back or are there other 
factors that made you go that route?

Subject: [rollei_list] RPA, Efke 25, fixer with hardener?


A friend of mine is sending me a box of Efke 25 film sheets 6.5cm x 9, this is 
the exact size for the Rollei plates adapter.I have read the emulsion is soft 
too much while wet and then Efke suggests a fixer with hardener. I have 
available to buy a Kodak rapid fixer with hardener, is it necessary really? or 
could I handle the wet film sheet with care avoiding to buy a new fixer?. BTW I 
have never used the Rollei plates adapter yet, I have never developed film 
sheets yet (I have a Domi-Plan tank)and I have never used hardener, modern 
emulsions don't need hardener, older ones -Efke 25 uses an Addox formula- 
needed one often.
TIA 

Carlos
