Ektaflex Box Sitting Right Here!
There are two Ektaflex boxes sitting right beside me on the chair. I have been storing old test prints in them since the very early 1980's, traveling with me to at least eight different houses. Twenty-Five sheets cost $33.20 in what I am going to guess was 1980.

That is it! Kodak Ektaflex system. I thought I had dreamed up the the thing, but I have color prints that show the outline of being sandwiched together with another sheet. Colors still look good, although the few prints I have handy might be test prints, I remember the colors were almost a vivid as the Ciba Chrome prints I made. I have attached another print, one edited, the other as scanned showing the little notch in the corner. Thank you all for replying.

Does anyone remember a developing system that was a blue box with a crank where the print was shuttled into a plastic box that was filled with chemicals. The box was blue on the bottom with a grey upper tray. There was some sort of ramp for the paper to slide into the box and a crank on the side. I tend to remember it was some kind of dye transfer where the finished print was laminated then pulled apart. I have some prints that show signs of being laminated, they appear to be printed from slides.
I have attached a print that shows the outline of another sheet that was attached to the print then pulled away. There is a red outline along the edge of the finished print. I had this device in my darkroom in the mid 1980's. It was only large enough to do 8" x 10" photos and only processed color prints. Thanks in advance.

Great photos, but I don't see too many describing the subjects by what they are doing in the photograph. Most are just close-up head shots.

Is there an adapter to install a K mount lens onto a Pentax 67 camera?

Bought my first Pentax MX in 1980, and an ME Super in 1990. Have assorted lenses, 35, 50, 100 Macro, 300 Zoom. Have had multiple darkrooms and assorted other cameras over the years including numerous Polaroids. Next buy is going to be a Pentax 6x7. Picked up an Epson V600 scanner to get all my old negatives into digital form. Haven't shot film in 20 years, looking forward to getting back into the analog world!
