Alan Sockloff: Photographer
Technical Info
Over 95% of these photographs were made using a 4 x 5
view camera, with lens focal lengths ranging from 58 mm
to 305 mm. A small percentage were made using the square
format (cropped when printed) of a medium format camera,
with focal lengths ranging from 50 mm. to 150 mm.
The sheet and roll film used for the large majority of
the photographs was T-Max 100, although I have on
occasion also used either Tri-X or T-Max 400. All of
the film for the images shown in the galleries of this
website had been developed using D-76, although more
recently I have started to use T-Max RS.
The prints have been made on a variety of papers, all of
which are glossy graded fiber-based papers that are
considered neutral or cold tone. Scrap pictures are
printed on Cachet Expo G, while most of the others are
printed either on Calumet Brilliant Bromide (or Luminos
Graded Classic), Galerie, or Oriental Seagull. In all
cases, prints have been developed in either Dektol or
Selectol Soft or some combination of these, with selenium
toning done on papers that can tolerate it without
significant change in color.
