very nice!
I have an iphone app that I purchased from the appstore which does function as a meter... it works, but it's clunky.
Bear in mind that the only iPhone to date which can practically meter is the...
Brad,
all great thoughts. You're right, the UI right now is not exactly in the same order as how I described the flow, and I know the UI is messy and terrible. It's mostly a proof of concept to...
I haven't yet mastered all of the nuance of metering on large format. I use a spot meter, a Minolta Spotmeter F to be exact.
Basically, trying to meter a tone in the scene, correct the indicated...
good catch! The base is level(ish), but since I'm running a jobo tank on it, and the jobo has the big red collar on it, it sits up about 10-15 degrees. I guess I need to make a matching collar for...
Here's a slide I liked a lot! SA 75/8 on EPP.

I went up to Kennesaw Mountain today and shot some of the cannons and such.
I'm still working on this whole spot metering thing, so some of my shots aren't ideal, but every now and again one...
I have a vanguard setup with the large "300" sized ballhead that I bought to work with MF and my crown graphic, and when I got my omega 45F, it just wasn't cutting it. I'd have to really crank down...
I actually remembered bellows factor, I just chose my placement poorly. :)

I wasn't exactly going for this look, I just really suck at metering sometimes :)
Printed and matted!

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to attempt to print it at 16x20 tonight, wish me luck! :D
I think your 'dirty grain' is, in fact, skin :D You'd have to work at it to get grain that visible out of an 8x10.
By the way, I have a tetenal 5L E6 kit, and I know I'm supposed to throw the stuff out and mix fresh at some point, but the first pint I mixed just keeps developing sheet after sheet with no signs of...
I do my own E6, 35mm, 120, and 4x5. It's not terribly difficult, and the process is more tolerant than some would have you believe.

I was experimenting with Bellows Factor the other day, and took some pictures of a holga at close to 1:1. I thought I was shooting tmax400, but the film holders I grabbed actually had Velvia 100F in...
yeah, I got it and I'm quite happy with it!
there's no lock yet, but I'm about to fabricate some sliding locks for it.
Ok, got the lensboard done, and received my camera, so here it is!
Excellent!
I ordered an Omega View 45F with wide-angle bellows from them yesterday, EX- condition. I should have it tomorrow, here's hoping that it's as good as nearly everything else I've gotten...
Perhaps!
At EX condition, I would have likely been angry. My EX condition PDs prism has no desilvering. However, at UG and $12, I don't mind a bit!
I've bought a lot of stuff from KEH, usually BGN, always more than serviceable. Not too long ago I bought a Nikon 18-200VR for my digital, got the BGN grade lens at $465 (vs $650 for EX or $800...
I ended up ordering two 34mm boards from KEH. I spoke with a salesman there and he gave me straight answers on it.
I spent some time this morning designing a 158mm lensboard adapter that'll hold...
Oh yeah, I can make something like that easy peasy.
that's not a bad idea. I went ahead and ordered two Omega lensboards... maybe I'll try cutting on one to make an adapter.
yeah, I use the preview on my xenar, but I can't get it to catch on the angulon. Not sure what's wrong with it.
Hahaha it's actually way less expensive to laser cut stuff when you DON'T own the machine. Those things are not cheap, and the maintenance is priced accordingly.
I have a Crown Graphic and two lenses on graphic lensboards for it. I'm wanting to buy a cheap omega view 45 to play with, and I want to make sure I get the right lensboards for the lenses I...
I did something similar... loaded some film holders and then flipped on the light with the film box still open... with one full sealed envelope, and 18 sheets of an open envelope stacked and in the...
I'll look into it!
I've printed a bunch on Adorama VC paper... You can buy better papers, but the adorama is a spectacular value on paper. I have no complaints.
I've been processing 4x5" E-6 in a cibachrome print drum on an ilford motor base for the last couple weeks, and it works pretty well for daylight processing. However, I'd like a bit more...
