Hi All,
I noticed a couple of my Toyo film holders were missing the small screws that hold the two halves of the holder are gone and now the holders are showing small gaps, does anyone have a...
I forgot those were a thing! sounds like a great alternative rather than a separate monopod or second tripod even. I'll give this a look.
In fact it does! however the deeper into this rabbit hole I go the more I'm seeing that the gibellini in its current form cant handle these lenses without serious modification. The front Standard...
If thats the case I might need to enlist Mr. gibellini on camera modifications or look into selling/trading my Gibellini camera for a Canham 8x10 which i saw has over 800mm of bellows extension right...
I'm assuming when it says "flange focal distance" that means when focused at infinity, thats how far the flange is from the film plane? If that's the case I need to find a somewhat economical way of...
Hey Kumar,
The front standard has small plastic stops that can lock the tilt of the lens board. So I believe a top hat lensboard might work. It also appears that Gibellini uses a sinar standard...
i managed to find quite a nice deal on set of the Nikkor T-ED lenses, 800 & 1200mm rear element sets.
I currently have a Gibellini ACN810, which I believe has a bellows extension of +/-600mm.
I...
I’m looking to expand my lens arsenal, I’ve noticed lately a lot of my shots requires some sort of cropping after development and subjects that I can’t easily get to. Does anyone have any...
I had a gitzo 1570m that was sadly stolen about a year ago and with the pandemic and lack of funds I haven’t been able to replace it until now. I’ve been looking at an Arca Swiss c1, but haven’t...
It will certainly be interesting. I cant find the exact shutter being assembled on youtube however with some luck and a mechanical mind I should be able to assemble it. If it comes down to it im...
I have an old shutter where one of the leafs came loose and wouldn't close properly. after a slightly bad attempt at repairing it myself I'm need of help. its mostly in pieces and need...
Hi all,
I've been enjoying my current collection of 150, 300, and 450mm lenses but at this point im looking for something longer. I know of the coveted fuji 600 and a nikon 800T that doesn't sport...
sounds like I have a non-issue on my hands!
Hey all, I'm down to only a couple sheets of ektar and provia but i have six sheets of portraits 400. I wanted to know if there's a way to really make this film pop color wise? Underexposure?...
I ended up finding a used set with a 67mm W/A ring for about $120...not perfect but it'll do. I'll probably end up up selling and replacing my filters when breakthrough finally comes out with their...
I'm looking for a filter folder for some of the GNDs I bought from breakthrough. and quite frankly I really am disgusted at the idea of spending $170 on a hunk of plastic to hold $200 hunks of glass....
It sounds like I should invest in some portra 400 just to have something to fall back on in situations that a GND filter just can't solve.
Taking a trip to europe this august/september and wanted to get some film recommendations on the trip. I'm probably going to get Ilford Delta 100 over Tmax 100 just due to economics. I'm torn on what...
does it work well with any of your wide angles?
I've looked into Breathrough's filters and if what they say is half true then its better to get those for the same price and a lee resin filter and get a good piece of nano coated SCHOTT glass.
I have two nikkor lenses (150 and 300mm) for my 8x10 and im trying to get a filter system that will fit on them no issues. Ive read that the Lee push on filter is my best bet but I've also seen that...
APO-LANTHAR!!!!! he finally came back by the store again and I remembered to ask. I've done some reading and example images and these things are amassing from what I can tell. so are the price tags.
none of these ring a bell sadly...id the customer comes back then I'll definitely ask again!
I work at a retail store in NYC, a customer and I were talking about large format film and he brought up a lens that I cannot for the life of me remember. it started with an "a" and he made the...
What sort of gear can you carry in one of those? I'm looking into them and I'm loving the price and the looks honestly.
Hello all,
You've all seen this question schpeal a billion times. However a lot of these threads are old and I wanted to see if and LF users on here had some updated suggestions on a backpack for...
I've been looking for something to haul my gear around the city in! This may be the best solution figuring ill be going in and out of subways so much! I'll definitely be checking this bag out.
There is a stopper on the focusing mechanism, its basically a nob attached to a very long screw with a stopper to prevent it from popping off. I haven't ordered any of their film holders yet as I'm...
It kinda is. I wasn't informed about the ACN810 until Alessandro reached out to me when he saw I was looking for an 8x10. I want say after everything mine was about 2500ish Euros.

No Worries! I took some quick shots of the back and holder insert area for you.
As far as I can tell mine is glass, and the bale back is printed. The base has etched marks along the rear standard but I plan on making a few etching in cm myself to help do quick bellows draw...
Its 60/40 metal and printed materials. The extension rail, front standards, rear side arms, and parts of the rear standards are powder coated aluminum. The Bed and other parts of the rear frame are...
As far as customer service he was always quick to respond to questions. the only trouble I had was with Fedex that made the whole process difficult due to customs. They actually ended up sending it...
So far its pretty solid. I want to day with the camera, shipping, reduction back, I paid just over $3100
I recently acquired a new 8x10 from Gibellini Cameras, While I can't write a revise just yet so far the camera undoubtedly looks solid. I tried blowing on it very much with no play in the standards...
I didn't realize I typed 120! I meant to type 210mm. I'm looking into the 210mm Rodenstock Sironar N Macro lens. I saw on Catlabs that it covers 8x10 with plenty at infinity with Macro being even...
I've wondered if the description on the site doesnt mean its great coverage when using macro, or if the Sironar N has tons of coverage on 8x10 normally.
with a new 8x10 on the way courtesy of Gibellini, I'm looking at lenses to buy for it. I already have a nikkor 300mm and now i'm looking into slightly wider and slightly longer. I've been eying a...
Noted folks, I ask the advice to avoid mistakes/wasting money that isn't always easy for me to come by. I have very limited LF experience (maybe 8 hours total) I suppose I do overthink a lot and get...
