You really don't need the bag bellows with a 90mm on the Wista VX. The bellows will be a little bit scrunched but it still works perfectly fine with the camera's movements. And even though it's a...

Sorry I was only trying to help. The thread mentioned Ooma as an option. But you replied with a cryptic response that I truly couldn't understand: "thanks, well not much info on this. so this forum...
That's the info I gave him (via a link to a thread in macnn) but he didn't seem to understand that. :confused:

...not sure what this has to do with large format photography(?)
If you're a hobbyist you'll probably think differently about color film processing and the impact that the digital paradigm has had in the commercial world. But the reality is (and always has been)...
That's a good point and probably the bigger issue in respect to the choice of negative versus transparency. A&I have stopped processing all reversal film now, so there's no more E6. They used to do...
They did the same to me. I called them and cancelled my account. Not long thereafter, they emailed and apologized and said there will be no holds and that I'm welcome to open a new account.

You might find transparency a little easier for color correcting since you'll have a reference to work with. Or just use up one sheet with a Macbeth checker in the frame (it's also worthwhile to do...
I opened my original PayPal account many, many years ago. I don't recall having to link it to a bank account. I did link it to an active cc account. If it was ever linked to a bank account, that...
I have a PayPal account but linked to a credit card only. I'm personally not interested in linking my bank account number directly with PayPal (or with anybody for that matter.) I'm often reminded...
That's exactly how it's done.
It looks like the Lippincotts taught you well ;)
One of the caveats with doing a video like this is that people will always have their own way that works for them, and pretty much only for the specific equipment they're using.
But I honestly...
What Drew says is correct, and this is all normal procedure under Chapter 11. I think the press likes to make it sound more sensational then it really is.... (the process itself is pretty boring to...
You're absolutely right. And resolution arguments are primarily for the hobbyists.
I went to Light Iron's open house (a friend of mine is a colorist for a major post house) and they had both the...
Where does it say it's been actually dropped? I don't see that. If you click on their 'commercial businesses' link on their new front page and then click on 'pro photo products' it connects you...
This has been going on already for quite some time. Corporate multiplexes are more the norm now and probably even more so in rural areas where keeping a 'mom and pop' theater open with a small...
According to the Hollywood Reporter and other industry sources, the film division is profitable because the profit margin on film is very high for Kodak. But it's really only 'profitable' providing...
An article reprinted from 1983: http://features.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2012/01/08/embattled-kodak-enters-the-electronic-age-fortune-1983/
The writing was on the wall back then. It simply took...
All the USA retailers have lots of inventory, too. Plus it's a lot cheaper to NOT use the Kodak store. They sell at high MSRP. I personally don't know anyone who uses the Kodak web store, although...
Hi John, just to make clear: this wasn't meant to be a debate over your personal opinion of a body of work in an exhibition. Sorry if it sounded as such. Your opinions are as valid as any, whether...
No, and I won't make the 2011 MOMA New Photography. I have seen many of the previous ones. As you know I live in Los Angeles (and represented in "This Side of Paradise: Body and Landscape in Los...
fwiw, the "the collective ideal of the social function of images" includes a social concept of a 'certain' quality of production in all art, photography included. Hence the very common remarks by...
Hi John: just for the record, this wasn't necessarily a disagreement from me, but an observation about a phenomenon that has been ongoing in the art world (I purposefully left your name off the quote...
When an image fails for a particular viewer, it fails because of that viewer's notions of value and their own perceptions and world view. If an image fails with all viewers then it's considered to...
That's right and you can still get old Howteks on eBay, etc.. But one issue is software since it runs on older legacy operating systems. Then of course you need to find drums (and replacements when...
The chemistry is out there. Fuji Hunt, Tetenal, Rollei, Photographers Formulary, etc.. Luckily C-41 isn't proprietary. You can do it yourself, too.

But wait! The 997TT is AWD. And so are the C4S models of the 997. :)

Yeah, I never was in any sort disagreement. Other than saying, "a PMT dum scanner really cannot be compared with an CCD consumer scanner." And "there is a dramatic difference when you start...
I suppose I'd rather see comparisons between CCD scanners and comparisons between PMT scanners rather than mixing the two. I also wouldn't compare a consumer Epson flatbed with a Cruse flatbed,...
fwiw, I use an Aztek Premier drum scanner http://www.aztek.com/premier.html (the Aztek is based on the older and defunct Howtek.)

Location has nothing to do with it. The products are sold nationally and are national brands. The business is located in Southern California (Santa Ana winds) with many Bay Area customers. ...
Thanks for the update. It's kind of moot for me now since as I mentioned in my last post I have a Grandagon-N 4.5 to use for the project. I exposed a few sheets several days ago and we did a drum...

Simply a personal opinion:
I've used several incarnations of monocular/binocular viewing devices and found that they are really only good for two things:

It's an older Wista. Just like car mfgs, camera mfgs do change things over time. And it's not a Wista DX, it's a Wista Field 45. You can't base what you know about your Wista on a different model...
Exactly. It's really all about size/weight priorities or brighter viewing. No one is going to say "yuck, that image was made by using version X or version Y lens." But when I see it stated that...
When I go to the Whitney Biennial this coming March, I'll be certain to bring a microscope to look at the photographic prints. It's being curated by Sondra Gilman (who is also curator of photography...
I have seen that website many times in the past. There is no Nikkor 90mm 4.5 lens in their tests. Aside from physical size why does the 8 'surpass' the 4.5? How specifically is it a 'more...
This consideration is important to me, too. I'll be documenting the interior of dwellings where light is relatively dim. That's why I initially started my search for a good Nikkor 90/4.5 sample.

I have a chance to pick up the 90/4.5 for a decent price. I'm not new to LF and own several German lenses but no Nikkors, and have yet to use one.
I'd appreciate if you could tell me...
