Wow - long thread, and good.

I disagree that it is not contemplative. I have found that the longer I do this, and the more often i do it (particularly on the week + long trips of shooting every...

do not use this tank. I can't stress it enough; it will not work. the person who claims to have gotten even development may not have; sometimes you need to enlarge the negatives to really tell. ...

does adding a fresnel in front of the GG cause any focus shift?

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, I've read the archives and still am uns ure.

I have the Shen-Hao 4x5 field camera. Do I need a "bright" screen specifically built for my camera, or only...

My tank is by "doran." here's a followup - there's just no way I can make this thing work. Looks like unicolor time. Thanks for everyone's help.

I am newish to LF but not to b&w photography and processing. I've made the big leap of faith to LF but can't get even development with my sheets. I use a dayl ight tank to process. I know about...

I use the non xl 47 on my shen-hao. I can't get any movements besides tilts on my body, but there's not much room for them either. I use a 6x7 back with that lens and probably(if I bought a bag...

I use a Rodenstock Grandagon 90/6.8 on my shen hao and a recessed board. I do have some trouble getting at the controls, but it's doable. I do not have the bag bellows, but find that with the ...

can anyone comment on coverage of this lens on 6x7? that's what I'll be shooting and will not use movements (my front standard won't budge with th 47xl on it). I only expect to use a degree or so of...

I have an opportunity to buy this lens in a synchro-compur shutter used, in 'exc ellent' condition. I will use it on a 4x5 (shen-hao) to shoot rollfilm, mainly in color. Anyone have opinions on...

Is a synchro-compur shutter (mounted through a Schneider 47/5.6 SA (non-XL)) the same size as a copal 0? If I do not need the lens to cover 4x5 (just 6x9) is t here any optical or quality difference...

pete - 8 exposures? then why is it called the rh-10?

I have a shen-hao camera (graflok back) and want a 6x7 roll holder. Will the gr aflex rh-10 fit my camera? I can either buy that holder, or the wista 6x7 holde r, however the wista is twice the...

it sounds like you will be photographing in the field. You may want a folding field camera instead of a rail camera. Wooden fields such as Shen-Hao and Tachihara a less expensive, lighter, and...

Maybe I should add that it is in a synchro-compur shutter, with no number given although I would assume it would have to be a '0'. Speaking of which, is this shutter any better/worse that a...

I want to buy a 47/5.6 Super Angulon to do wide angle stuff on 6x7 film with my Shen-Hao 4x5 Camera. I don't need the coverage(or the wallet-busting) of the XL , and from what I can see, the non-xl...

I just can't find the answer to this specific question so here goes:

I'm about to buy a shen-hao wooden 4x5. It has the graphlok back. Will a mamiy a rb67 back fit on this camera? if so,what...

I'm looking to get into 6x7 photography now, and probably 4x5 photography in the future. while it seems that systems like the pentax 67 are best for lanscape/scenic/wideangle 6x7 photography, I'd...
