There's also the Light & Land darkcloth, designed by Joe Cornish & David Ward and made by Paramo (people who make the outdoor clothing)
I've looked through a camera with one in place and they are...
I guess this is almost back to the camera obscura where you set up your own building pointing in the direction you want...
You're not thinking of the pinhole created in the aircraft hanger to take a picture of a cityscape miles away where the "film" was a sheet of material many yards wide?
If exposures are lasting that long, is it general softness from the pinhole setup or seismic activity he's picking up? :eek: ;)
The rest of the pinhole box would have to be exceedingly light-tight...
I've used a Ruxxac luggage / sack cart when I used to transport my Sinar box and tripod around.

It was good in that it folded flat to...
We've got two at home an Urban Disguise 60 which I use for my DSLR (great as it allows L-series lenses to be put in with shades attached - no other bag I looked at did that. It's very well made and...
I've got a Berlebach as I considered a Ries to be way over the top in mass, size and especially cost and I'd have to import one from the States to the UK with the joys of customs. I'm "only" using...
I'll add one but I thought it had more water on...

Thanks for the info on taking readings through the filter - I'll give it a try as we're supposed to be going out and so far there's a blue sky and white clouds...
But does putting a red filter on alter the exposure gradient rather than just the exposure time?

I've been using the expodev software for a while on and off and get some great results but keep coming back to a puzzle.
I understand for the filter factors, you enter, for example, "8" for a...
Push-on rubber feet for walking sticks - if the store looks at you strange, say you've only got three legs on your Zimmer frame as one fell off and you don't need it... ;)
I have a "54" model that predates the 504 models.
I gather it's nominally 5x4 but would take a 5x7 "unoficially" as a tax dodge in post-war UK (5x7 was classed as professional use so attracted a...
And also, if Fuji are hot on the film case (and they keep plugging it with the Choosefilm website) why can't we officially get Quickloads in the UK rather than have to rely on some companies...
It's a bit long to wait but at Focus on Imaging show at the NEC companies have offers on for free postage / BOGOF / "Vat Free." For the last few year's I've stocked up on Fotospeed papers as they...
Ben,
It might be a bit quicker / easier trying the English distributor:
Image 2 Output Ltd.
Unit 19
The io Centre
Hearle Way
Hatfield Business Park
Hatfield
Yes, they do - 1.89 per sheet plus VAT for C41
They don't do B&W neg but do E6 with a sliding scale depending upon how many you take in.
The easiest would be to register on their site then you...
Ben, If you're working around Huddersfield, there's also Leach Colour at Bradley. I've dropped trannies off at lunchtime and picked them up on the way home. No problems so far.
It can work the other way - I wanted an operator's instruction manual for a Bronica but didn't want to pay the extortionate rates from Oldtimer Cameras knowing I'd get a photocopy that cost a few...
I have the Lee push-on filter for the lens - no real problems with it if you are careful. You don't need the donut on the 90XL.
It pushes on up to an internal stop and there's also a side locking...
I've generally used the IRE scale for transparencies - it says so in the Pentax manual AFAIR. Highlights on 10 and shadows on 1 and it's given me decent results so far...
I have a Zone VI sticker...
They should get better with use - mine were the same on the 45SU as I knew from the spec that the camera should take a 65mm lens but I was having trouble with a 90mm to get movements.
As for...
I haven't done up to now but the number of times I get the lens set up with the Lee filter holder & filters on the front and then realise I haven't attached the release and I haven't got the nimblest...
and if it was that black that it couldn't be seen, you could avoid it by default by walking round the thing you can't see as you can see everything else around it so you know where not to go...
;)
I use 5x4 and can carry it but I don't go on hikes - as mentioned above the ancillaries can add up to a fair amount of weight and some rucksacks aren't the lightest of things - I was surprised how...
I generally title my work but as most of it is architectural, I believe it needs a title as it's a technical subject. The few bits of pictorial work I've done, I have tried to title it but find it...
Vinny,
You don't put them on all four wheels - just the front ones for steering AFAIR. I've seen it in the owner's handbook somewhere but skimmed over it because thankfully, we don't get much snow...
Void,
As I mentioned in my post above, Berlebach can custom make a tripod for you. Send them your desired modifications and allow them to quote for the difference in price and lead time - neither...
Not Prussian Blue, or is that another type of film? :shock: :wink:
I've recently bought an Eschenbach 4x magnifier to go on the front of my specs when I'm running out of hands setting up the...
My mistake - I think I'm getting the Minolta confused with the old Gossen Spotmaster 2 - the big and expensive one that's the dedicated spotmeter rather than a do-it-all type...
The prices I've...
Mark, if you like Minolta meters - are the Kenko range any use? There's not a true spotmeter in there but the others have 'similarities'
To the original topic, I have both - a Pentax digital...
It's great news from Ilford and let's hope it spills over out of just the college arena into other areas. In my local camera club, there's only two out of approx 25 that are still using film and...
Rob,
Amazon should be OK for afterservice - I know it's not strictly the same situation but someone from work bought a Nikon DSLR and went to work in China for a couple of years. Whilst out there,...
Buze - they look great and just in time for Christmas - coming to a UKLFPG meet soon?
My Dad's always whinged about heavier cameras and this might be an option for him if he gets some cash...
Don't know about any official rates but here in the UK I've sorted out an exhibition of work from nationwide photographers and that had an insurance value of approx. 50 gbp per image including the...
It's possible to download the latest technical data guide from the Fujifilm website in pdf format so that might give you the modern characteristics so you can compare...
I'll second the get what you pay for comment - some of the cheapo plastic ones look like they've been made in gash injection moulding setups with lots of flash around the edges and seem fairly...
The thing with the Ebony bellows is that they are leather opposed to the synthetic Sinar ones so should be more supple once "worked in." I questioned the Ebony's ability to take a 65mm lens when I...
