Re: [APML] Pentax 67 purge port........NOT!<g>

[Tim Povlick <potentate@home.com>]

I was curious about purging so here goes some questions:

When one drills either the 67 or 67-II, for daylight use
would you have to plug the hole else light will get in?

In a desert environment, say  15% humidity is a purge
system necessary for hypered film?

If you have some accessory before the camera, say a
field flattner that can be drilled, is this an acceptable
place to drill?

Since oxygen (as well as H2O) seems to be the enemy
of hypered film, it would seem a nitrogen purge is better
than a dried air purge.


Thanks for any insite into this...
