As LoFi moves into the HiFi phase of existence , we hope to bring you some more online content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our first virtual meeting was held last Wednesday and the main topic of conversation was Tinting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johnsons of Hendon Limited manufactured photographic eqipment after WWII (1948 – 1972)<\/a> although the company had been opperating since 1743<\/a> in various guises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tinting set was kindly donated to Edinburgh LoFi by Madeline Shepherd<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These dye tints require dilute layers to be built up gradually to build up the stain. (See Hand Colouring Photographs<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further discussion of oil based tints rounded off with the use of Marlene Oil both to remove mistakes and to draw in fine highlights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
