A two-parter! Yes!
(1) Anyone have experience doing bulk loading? I havea bulk loader but no
darkroom access (yet...hopehopepraypray). Anyone out there do this on a
regular basis with a changing bag or some sort of beast? Problems (light,
dust)?
I have used a bulk loader in the past, with a changing bag to load the film into
the loader. No problems, as long as the changing bag is light tight. I have
used the same changing bag to load exposed film into a developing tank.
(2) Currently, I am contemplating getting a new camera body. I'd like to know
if anyone has done any testing to see how important a mirror lock-up is on
the OM line. Is the lack of it terribly noticeable when you blow up a negative?
Any help greatly appreciated.
I had an OM-1n years ago and never used the lock-up. If you really need a
lock-up, I believe it can be simulated on newer OMs by using the self-timer,
which locks up the mirror for a few seconds before making the exposure. I could
be wrong about this, because I never use the self-timer on my OM4T.
