  1. Re: What is the best first color filter for B&W work?

    I agree that the most anyone can tell you is what they like. On T-Max 100 I usually use an 8 Yellow.
    If your architecture shots will have red-brick buildings, then a red filter might have a large...
  2. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    Noted. The big news is that Apple is taking over the world with golden handcuffs. The new language (Swift), developer platform (Xcode) and operating system level camera controls (iOS 8) is making...
  3. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    Well, hold on there. This is taking an MS in Imaging Science from RIT, a BS in Physics, and a lifetime of walking through heat, snow, on trains, planes, and automobiles to create. The equations are...
  4. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    I think Hueless is around $3 on the App Store. Preview (what I call it today) will be priced competitively.
  5. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    Thanks. :)
  6. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    That is good info. Thank you! Setting the aspect ratio will be a simple procedure, and now I will use a pull down list to cover multiple formats. I am working on a storyboard now.
  7. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    OK, I understand. I may build it just for the exercise and those who want it will get it. I plan to keep it cheap in any case.
  8. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    If I do this, I will include 5x7

    Android has an SDK separate from Xcode, and iOS 8 has some features that will be useful in building the app. Also, I can program in Objective C for iOS, but we...
  9. Re: Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    Thanks. This is what I needed to know.
  10. Would This Virtual View Camera App Idea Interest Anyone?

    I have been trying to think of a way to capitalize on some of my misspent education, and I would like your comments (positive, negative, or otherwise) on this idea for an iOS iPhone/iPad App. Would...

    Re: Scanning Resolution

    What many large format photographers forget (or never understood) is that diffraction is a major limitation at small f/stops (such as f/64). Each element of the system, however, must be considered,...

    I salute you; I don't have a way to print 32x40 and no one has ordered that big a print from me. Yet.

    Re: Scanning Resolution

    Yes, but he notes that the higher 720 dpi makes a difference mostly for line art. He also makes the point that your results may differ, and I certainly agree with that.

    Scanning Resolution

    There are several threads related to specific scanners; here I just wanted to suggest that worry about super-high resolutions such as 6400 dpi for 4x5 film is overkill, and will result in many...

    Re: Epson V800 & V850. thoughts?

    My V700 stopped working and is in the service center. While waiting to hear whether it lives or dies, I have been reading reviews of the new V800 and V850 scanners and see that no mention that at...

    Re: Lens Wraps

    I personally like the Domke wraps, with soft fabric on the outside that sticks to velcro hooks. In any case, it is a personal choice. They are still available online.

  24. Re: HP5+ in D-76 ...starting over with 4x5 -- where to start w/ JOBO

    I should have added that with the Jobo CP processors (CPE, CPA, CPP) you can take one or more of the unused plastic bottles, fill it 2/3 with water (to allow for ice expansion) and freeze it. Then...
  25. Re: HP5+ in D-76 ...starting over with 4x5 -- where to start w/ JOBO

    Your 73 degree water is a bit warmer than most, so you are going to have to experiment. That Freestyle site, and that HP5+ sheet you were given the link to both give times for 68 degrees. (Your 73...
