[LargeFormat] Jobos for 5x7?

[Les Newcomer]

Here in Detroit every body bowed to the great Kodachrome God for its 
sharpness and fine grain, and kept offering sacrafices to persuade it to 
give them back what they once had-- large format kodachrome.

That is until Velvia came around, then everybody turned their prayer rug 
to face east.  When provia showed up a stop faster we knew this was a good 
god.  Provia in 5x7 is incredible stuff.  Except now the digital god has 
been awakened and put a pox on all other gods.  Has forced us 
photographers to spend incredible amounts of money and sacrafice our tried 
and true cameras and holders in order to work faster and be more 
productive.  Which we are, we are just making less doing it.

But I don't have a clue about processing 5x7 in a Jobo.  All I ever did 
was Expert tanks on an ATL 3. And that was easy.... load the tank, twiddle 
the dials. push one button,  set my watch timer and go schmooz with the 
client.
