New to me Omega View 45D. It doesn't have the stick on reference scales. Can they be found or made? Not sure exactly how useful they might be.

Also does the back come off or I would like to try...

Well for some of us "simple" B&W is a big enough challenge. Color via E6 is way beyond our means and skill set so....... For some of us this might be just the rig but for me it is still too early...

Hi Bob. Hope you are in good health and will spend the holidays with friends and family.

My Linhof is SN75526 so based upon your last post is it safe to assume it is a Super Technika IV. I have...

I am still a beginner in this format. Did 35mm in high school but that was a few weeks ago and had a dark room set up. Not a great one but I learned a lot. Turn the clock a few weeks into the...

I agree that the number of sheets would be an interesting data point.

I am not a fan of the agitator stick either. There are several lines of clear plastic storage containers with silicone gaskets and clips on the side to hold the top down. Mine seem to seal pretty...

If you go to the air and space web site you can search on Hasselblad and see photos of some of the cameras and...

Rats wrong first link. That is what I get for multitasking.

Read this link about Mr. Richard W Underwood. http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/history/oral_histories/UnderwoodRW/UnderwoodRW_10-17-00.htm Yes...

Hasselblad has posted this too http://www.hasselblad.com/inspiration/our-story/hasselblad-in-space

But I was thinking that others on this forum might be interested. The lady that put me onto the...

I posted this link to the FB group but thought I would post it here in case others might be interested. I recently sent inquires to Smithsonian and NASA asking about the cameras et al that the...

I have the Anatomical Grip and it is OK if you are hand holding the camera but it takes up space tends to get in my way. I am going to see what I can do to fashion one for the top strap lugs.
...

OK thanks Bob. So are the side handles available or should I visit the shoe/luggage maker and have one made? I can see where a top handle could get in the way of the view finder if attached. I am...

I see on ebay that some of the Technika's have a nice leather handle. It would be nice to put a substantial handle on the top. There appears to be two really nice fittings on the top for such a...

Thanks Wilhelm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That gives me something to work with.

I think it is the "standard" bellows. But it also has a focusing scale for the 90mm lens. Other than getting a lens and mounting it on a lens board is there a quick way to tell which board the...

I am looking for a 90mm f8 Schneider lens for my Linhof as my second lens. I have seen several on ebay at prices I can afford. I see them with or without lens boards. I see them with flat or...

Thanks for the feedback. But does anyone know how many filters that Linhof made available? Taking to another Linhof owner today he seemed to think that the one with no glass and "O" might have been...

I fly way toooooooooooo Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch but..... the bag fees have made the cabin a mess and many passengers are such pigs. The airline have actually abetted this with bigger bins. The ...

OK. I was thinking the red one marked 2 may be a 25 but was looking for an independent double check opinion. Photos taken with it seem to have similar characteristics I see in Ansel's book. I have...

My Linhof came with a set of Linhof filters. There is a green, yellow and dark red all labeled as 2. In reading Ansel Adams books he talks mostly about what I think are Wratten filters or some...

Thanks I will have to work on film holder seating. My ritual is to have the shutter closed before I insert the film holder. But I need to double check how the holder is seated before I pull the...

Being a newbie and all that. Would this be a good example of a leaky film holder?

I have also noticed that the image isn't always "centered" on the negative? Is there some technique to loading...

Excellent advice for a newbie. I will have to dig around for appropriately sized rubber bands. Thanks

Thanks Bob. I don't know that I would actually use the Kalart much. Would rather put the Loupe on the ground glass. But a 72mm wouldn't be a problem with the rail mechanism other that I would have...

They are a hard plastic material the best I can tell and the wire things don't unscrew.

I have a couple of Linhof holders and the wire catch thingies to hold the dark slides in place are loose. Thinking about a very small drop of Loctite to firm them up. Any other suggestions. Being...

Boy I haven't processed my own film for many many years. No longer have the equipment but maybe it is time to try it again. However, I live on a septic tank and worry about putting bad stuff in it....

I use it for initial viewing, sorting, tagging, searching and rough edits. Then take the best of the bunch into full PS.

Could you send me a couple? I loaded the last 4 color sheets I have and no have a single empty box but.......

Here I am with my Linhof IV in Rocky Mountain NP on my first real shooting session with it. The case is really cool. Has anyone seen another Linhof case like this?

OK Interesting approach thanks. But I guess this is a hoarder crowd which is OK. Yes I will be shooting more film as I need to learn the finer points of my Linhof Teckina but have to take it a step...

I am just starting to go down the large format wormhole. So far I have made only 14 exposures, 6 Ektar 100 and 8 HP5+ so I haven't yet generated any empty boxes. I have to take the whole film...

Richard seems to have vanished into the Ether so are there any other Linhof folks in this neighborhood?

Yes and that is installed. I also have cams for 90 and 360 but not the lenses. Is the 90 the widest that will work on this camera without problems with the front focus rails?

Just made the plunge with a linhof super tech IV purchased direct from factory March 22, 1962. I have the original sales receipt. Mostly complete kit with hammered aluminum case. Only the 150mm...

Please add me to your group. Just took the plunge for a super technician IV 4x5. Pretty full kit but with only one lens, 150mm but got metal case and lots of other goodies.
