[LargeFormat] A daylight tank for 4x5

[Pete Caluori]

Greetings Gareth,

I have used the H-P Combi and Doran (similar to Yankee's) tanks.  They both 
work, but I found some sheets would frequently get ruined.  Probably due to 
my inability to load the things properly.  I found they we're not the 
easiest things to load.  JOBO makes a tank (3010) that holds 10 sheets of 
4x5 and requires as little as 210 mL of chemistry.  I've processed several 
hundred sheets in mine without a single failure.  The only down side is 
cost; the 3010 tank is expensive at ~$230, but it should last a lifetime.

Regards,  Pete
