I just found the "clip" on the Jobo site. Apparently there's a black guide of sorts that keep the edge of the film from touching the adjacent sheet. I know for a fact it's not on the carrier I'm...
Out of the six negatives processed, one of them had a very faint streak running down the middle of it. An instructor at the photography center me ntioned a clip or gadget of some sort that needs to...
Looking for a wide angle to compliment my Schneider 210 Apo, hopefully in the 5-600 hundred dollar range. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thnaks-Albert
Larry,
Fuji Reala or a Kodak 25 type emulsion would be a nice start. It boggles the mind why neither of the two offer something in the 50-100 iso range. I can't imagine there not being a market...

What's it going to take to get better print film available for our 4x5's and 8x10's. I recently called Fuji and posed the same question, their response was "consumer demand, in the form of emails...
I'm considering a range finder to help with dof measurements when I'm using my 4 x5. Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated. Regards-Albert
I use a 210 Apo Schneider lens on my 4x5 for my portraits. At a distance of 5 feet, my dof is about a foot at f22!! Check out schneideroptics.com for dof charts, they'll help you keep things in...
I was wondering what type of 4x5 C-41 (print) film is available for landscape photography? For Chrome-I use Velvia, but development cost are higher. I'd apprectiate any thoughts. Thanks again-Albert
At the risk of starting another taste great-less filling argument over UV filter quality and types. I'd like to poll readers of this great site ab out the type of UV filters used, and whether I...
I was recently considering the purchase of a Schneider 210 APO lens when I noticed there was oil on the inner portion of the blades. I was surprised by this because these lenses haven't been in...
I almost forgot to ask about film type, any preferences and why would be appreciated. I was thinking of Fuji Astia, but could really use all the speed I can get, so I am considering a faster film.

Greetings,
I was recently asked to take a couple of picture at a friends wedding with my 4x5. My first thought was to use available shaded light, for lack of a better word. It would be nice...
Hello Again Grey,
I see were in another-less filling-taste great debates, again! You've asked a perfectly legitimate question, and I believe everyone here, including myself, are attempting to give...
Hello Grey,
You'll be hard pressed to find a better sheet of 4x5 landscape film than Velvia. Every so often I need to remind myself of this fact by shooting other films, the results are always...
Hi Roger,
If evaluating lenses is your cup of tea, by all means visit Chris Perez's web site http://www.hevanet.com/cperez/proposal.html Chris was pretty much like the rest of us, tierd of all the...
I'd like to start off by thanking those who shared Harold Merklingers focusing techniques with me. While on vacation in Utah, I applied his techniques and found them to be very usefull and accurate. ...
I'd like to thank everyone for their curteous and informative responses. I can defenitely live with the minor annoyance, now that I know it's common. I recently purchased a Horseman 6x7 back so...

I've been seing a noticable change in the spacing between photograph. Does anyone know whether there are any adjustment that would cure this problem. Is film flatness an issue with these devises. I...
Out of the few photographs I've taken of the moon, my best results, and there a long way from being what I'd like, came from using a 20 and a 300mm lense/two exposure shot in Hawaii. For whatever...
Does anyone know where I could possibly find small bubble levels for my front standard. They would be very similar to the ones I have on the rear standard for leveling the ground glass.

Hello Jon,
The back your describing is used on a host of different cameras. You'll first need to decide on the format. 6x7 is popular because you can easily make 4x5 and 8x10 prints without...
I've been shooting with my Toyo 4x5 for about a year now and I love it. Unfortun atley, some of us don't have mechanical depth of field calculators built in to o ur view cameras and that's where the...
