Could anybody give me an idea of how much to pay for a grafmatic these days?.
Something in good shape
I have accumulated a total of 60 of these things.I had more but I have kept only the pristine ones .I simply kept the septums for replacement and threw the rest away.
I found that if you are careful...
So, good luck it is

Do not do it.
I had a beautiful gallery ,for Photography only, for ten years.
We had great photographers and worked like a dog all that time.
Never made any money.
It is not worth it.
Save your...
I bought one and it is no good at all.
Some chinese large ormat camera devices are good
this one is not.
Difficult to go from verical to horizontal and unstable.
I would strongly advice against...
I guess I meant 400T
If you already have good lenses then the Shen Hao is your best choice.
I have the 6x17 and I am getting the 6x24.
It works quite beautifully, full movements and very light and portable.
I use a...
Hi Al,
Thank you for the reply ,interesting but a bit convoluted for me.
Could you just give me some clear examples?.
City lights buildings etc how many seconds for what exposure

EAT THE HAND!! EAT THE HAND!!
That little "tilt trick" results in some totally awsome rise! I use it with a three-way pan head, and it's very fast to do it. To make it really fast, put a bubble...
Does anybody have a good table of exposures for urban night photography with Portra 160 on 4x5 format?
I would appreciate it.
Thanks Luis
Some time ago I saw an add on Ebay for a 120 roll film back for a 8x10 camera but I can not find it any more.
Does anybody know ?
I am pretty certain it was from China
Thank you very much.
...
I have both but I am using the latest model of the Polaroid
I have finished using my first two boxes of 8x10 polaroid from the Impossible Project people.
I like the tonality and overall quality of the film but I have had trouble getting even processing....
I would like to know if there is a lens in the 210 to 250 range that could be mounted on a Copal 0.
Thanks
Luis
I saw a Callahan retrospective in Paris two years ago and besides the marvelous quality of his work the thing that one took away was Mrs Callahan . All about her from her lovely figure to her...
I have one ,had it for several years.
It is a fine camera, works well, is light and portable and overall the lens choice with its bellows fits my work well.
It is a keeper and a good price.
Luis
Nice work.
I would like a little more detail.
It looks like he uses fairly wide lenses and color negative film.
Is this correct?
Thanks Luis
Love my Nikkor 90mm one of the best and most used lenses that I have.
All Nikkor lenses are very good and do not require center filters.
Luis
Could someone explain to me what is meant by use the "double infinity"technique that Mr Sugimoto uses for the architectural work?
Thanks
Luis
How much is this puppy?
I use them all the time.
I have bought two of those chinese items one straight the other right angle.They work as expected and in general well enough to avoid the dark cloth.
For very fine focusing...
They are misleading at best.
All the talk about bringing 8x10 back and all they are doing is selling bad outdated film.
As it is it will be worthless with bad blue cast due to red dye fading.
I...
So what is the point on this question?
I am planning a trip to Venice next January, possibly two weeks.
I would like some advice for hotels that are nice but not overpriced and not too far out of the way.
Thanks Luis
Thank you everybody for the responses.
I ended buying two Photogenic Power Monolights 2500 in a kit
They are wonderful and work great.
They are good value for the money.
Thank you Luis
My Paul Buff monolights have failed me again for the third time so it is time to replace them.
Any suggestions as to what is good and reliable these days?
I would appreciate brands and comments...
I have all his books and I must say I like the images.
One should not dwell too much on technique ,it is the image that counts.
But since we are on the subject I simply can not believe these images...
These things happen everywhere.
I had a recent problem in this forum buying an item.
You can not trust anybody.
Luis
Both bust mostly coverage
What would be the smallest modern 90mm lens to cover 4x5 well?
Thanks Luis
I recently purchased a convertible 210mm lens in Copal 1.This has proven a very good and useful lens for me but I am concerned about exposing the Copal 1 blades when I remove the front element...
Thanks .
How do I tell if it is the S variety or not?
Sorry for my ignorance.
Luis
Could somebody tell me the exact thread size for the Copal 3?
I need to place a filter in front to protect the blades since I only have a cell in the back for this lens I am using.
Thank you very...
Ok Cool
I will do that.
Luis
I have a single cell of an old Taylor Hobson lens that I have mounted on a copal 3 shutter.It has a nice bokeh and works well.I have guestimated a focal length of about +/_ 150mm.
My question is how...
I need a recommendation for who does remounting of old lenses into modern shutters other than SK Grimes they are way too expensive and take for ever.
I would pre:) fer somebody with who you had...
Which old or new lens will provide the widest coverage for 8x10?
I am not interested on manufacturers specs but in somebody's personal
experience based in actual use.
90mm Nikkor?
127mm...
Thanks everybody
Luis:)

I have the Schneider 110 and last week used it with a Wehman camera. It covers the 8x10 fully with no vignetting. I used a tiny , may be 10mm shift, because it is all the bellows allow and it worked...
