Just the other day I phoned (in Swiss German :-) with Martin Vogt, the de facto boss of Arca. As usual, I asked him when they will have a web site. And just as usual, I got the reply that everyone...
Yes. I've experienced exactly the same problem.
There is the lower plastic ring that pushes the ball up for tensioning. The ring has a spherical shape at the top to match the ball. This ring got...
To CHECK the focus without having to shoot and process film:
Attach and open a lens. Remove the bellows. Darken the room. Focus on a glowing clear light bulb. Insert a film holder with a...
Probably the single most important weight saving equipment choice are my Kelty Phantom and Cloud 4000 backpacks. These are no longer made, but apparently the Cloud 5250 is the current model.

Thanks for the encouraging words. I submitted my website to Getty the same day QT mentioned it but my submission got rejected today. By the way, they only take digital low res images for initial...
Another tool I believe not yet mentioned is Sun Clock. It's free and has worked well for me.

Just today we began our evaluation of the 949. If they only could add infrared for dust removal! We tried their own FlexTouch algorithm but it either left dust in the scan or it created artefacts.

Thanks, I found that report useful. Regards, Frank.
Hello
I do desert landscape photography in medium and large format for the love of it.
I have work from South America, the Sahara, Namibia, Jordan, USA, Baja California and Iceland.
You can...
Anyone know what the outlook is? We can soon have 22 MP in the 645 format for 10'000 dollars, but what comes next? Is there a market for larger files? These files are plenty big for advertising,...
Caution, some sources on the web say that the Microtek i900 does not offer Digital ICE dust and scratch removal for film, only for flat art. If true, that sucks.

example Epson 4870
Another one that will do 5"x7" (13x18) is the Epson Perfection 4870. There's no film holder for that size, you just put the sheet on the glass.
The 4870 returns about half of the resolving...
Two sheets of the set that was exposed a year ago came back from the lab. I found a lot more of a difference than Alan did. About 2/3 to 1 stop darker and an easily seen magenta color cast - maybe...
Have you considered the adapter for the Arca 110 mm lens boards? The advantage would be that if at one point you decide to go with the 6x9 front standard (assuming 4x5 inch), you'll already have the...
Oh, sorry, I was not clear enough. The first 15 sheets have been exposed and developed a year ago. Only the second set of 15 has not yet been developed.
I guess I could take a few sheets out of...
Hi
I have 15 sheets of 13x18 Fuji RVP and Fuji RDP III that were exposed a year ago, stored at room temperature but not yet processed, due to certain circumstances of my private life. These are...
If you buy another lens, look into the APO Sironar-W (not S, not N). 80 degrees, 252 mm image circle at a resonable size. This lens is sought after, not in current production and somewhat rare.
Sorry, I should have worded my answer more carefully.
For a base tilt camera with a small lens board to have an advantage for tilts, the tilt pivot line must be higher compared with a camera with...
It seems that for cameras with base tilt, the size of the lens board is irrelevant to this issue. For an un-shifted exposure, the center of the lens has to be at the same height from the monorail as...
My son, the misura will be available when it will be available.
The brochure for the misura is currently in the eternal "arriving next month" state. And that likely means that the camera is in the...
If your filter is available in a square 100mm configuration, consider the Lee system.
