    Re: Nude

    Reminiscent of Jock Sturges. I really like the quality of the natural light.

    Re: Schneider G-Claron 355mm

    Actually, it is multi-coated. Back in the mid 2000's I sent the lens, in barrel, off to Arax, in Kiev, where it received a modern multi re-coating. Then I had SK Grimes mount it into a Copal...

    Re: Show off your Large Format camera!

    This is my unrestored 8x10 Agfa-Ansco "Ground, Type C-1", which I assume means that it was military property when new, with a Voigtländer-Heliar 30cm f4.5 lens.

    Re: 240mm 8x10 lens: which is best?

  23. Re: How and why did my Linhof Master develop cracks in the bellows?

    A few years ago, I had the bellows on my Tech V, replaced by Camera Bellows, in the UK. It's synthetic, and extremely flexible, but not any bulkier, to my eye. I don't expect to have to replace this...

    Tyler, it wasn't a problem for the 2880 to hit the (profiled) mark, spot on. The issue with the 4880 is more than just a colour shift; the prints come out with a very different curve/exposure. It's...

    While not an exact, I'm surprised no one has mentioned Tele-Xenars, in the 4x5 format. Schneider's longest tele is the 800mm Apo Tele-Xenar, with only a relatively normal bellows draw required.
