Yeah, I figured that I'm probably asking a bit too much for $250, how much is reasonable to spend on something half decent? I need money for more lenses too!
Thank you! I had the plastic washers installed, this must have been causing these issues. I seem to have been doing everything else correctly.
Thanks for the help!

Thanks, I'll check those out. I forgot, I'd prefer something with adjustable tilt angle on the legs. And a head with a quick release plate too...
Hi all,
I'm looking to get a tripod for use with my Zone VI field camera. I currently am borrowing a VERY HEAVY manfrotto tripod and 3 way head. I wanted to get something that is light enough to...

Great thread here. Took a shot of these tiny ferns a few weeks ago. They were about 2-3" long, and really tested the bellows extension on the camera! 150mm xenar, TMAX 400.

Thanks! I actually like it a lot too, I'm pretty excited to take a bunch of night exposures this weekend when camping.

Decided to try my hand at some star trails last weekend. Was taken in the city, next to a campfire (hence the bright tree). Maybe an hour exposure or so, 210mm lens. I'm happy with how it...

First day out with the Zone VI, 210mm, T-Max 400, 2-3s exposure I think.
Thanks all. I'm guessing I either agitate it too much, or push the clip down too hard (probably both of these things!).
Hi all,
I got a HP combiplan 4x5 tank to develop my first negatives in, and I'm pretty happy with it so far, but I've noticed a few times that the negatives slide out of the slots and stick...
Yeah, my wording was a bit confusing. It's a "permanent loan" sort of deal, he just told me not to sell it.
Thanks again for the info! Would a SA 5.6 (non-XL) be a better option than the SA 8? Does the 5.6 make it a lot easier to focus on the ground glass, or is there another good reason to prefer one over...

Limestone Kilns in a nearby state park.
Toyo Monorail, xenar 150mm, TMAX 400, scanned the negative on a normal flatbed scanner.
That sounds great. Yeah, the XL sounds like more lens that I need. Is the F8 SA more comparable to the Fujinon? It seem to be priced similarly. Having a large image circle would be nice, I've run...
Thanks! I suppose I could always take the 150 I have for the Toyo, and mount it in a new lens board? Any thoughts on 90mm lenses? I saw the Fujinon and the Super Angulon, not sure which would give me...
Hi all,
I am new to LF (and film), and just got into it about a month ago. I have a Toyo 4x5 monorail that I borrowed from a friend, which has a xenar 150mm lens. After using it for a while, I...
Got a few tree pics on Sunday... still very new to LF, only the second time shooting and developing film, so any help is appreciated!

Hi all,
I've been lurking here for a few weeks, trying to absorb as much info as I possibly can about large format photography. I've loved shooting pictures for a long time now, and growing up in...
Hi all! New to the forums, and new to LF photography (and film). I have a Toyo monorail camera with a xenar 150mm lens, and I just developed the first picture I took with it last night. This is a...
Glad I got mine last week!
Just developed my first negs ever with it last night, was happy with the results!
Hi there, new to this site, and LF photography in general, but I couldn't pass up an opportunity to talk about Block Island, I've spent a week or two there every year since I was a small child (so,...
