Stipula Ventidue Fountain Pen Copper Touch [Goulet], 1.1mm stub (with Sailor Studio #873)

Although this pen is lovely, it's challenging -- it's incredibly hard to turn the knob for the piston. I only have one hand, so I can turn the knob if I have the pen on its side and steady the barrel that way, then grip the knob with a rubber glove, but of course you can't fill a pen on its side. So I merely dipped the nib in the ink. Hopefully when my husband comes home he'll have better luck drawing up ink.

I just got my Silver Touch, and I too found it challenging to turn the piston. But I love the pen! EF nib on mine, really smooth writer. I filled it first with Iroshizuko Tsuku-kusa. And I got a nice deal on it, they are on sale right now.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
