    Need Tripod Advice

    The 3021 leg set is more than enough for any 4x5, no matter what it is made out of. Combined with a 3030 head, it is very stable with a field camera attached. I even use a 3011/3030 combo with a...

    Film holder light invasion

    I never entirely remove the dark slide - ever. Slide it out- leave it in place - snap shutter - slide it in. Why would you want to entirely remove it? Seems like a gamble to me.
