    Re: Will I get beaten up if ...

    So it all depends on your definition of "view camera".

    Now we can start this thread all over, arguing about that definition rather than the definition of "LF".

    Ain't we lucky?

    Unfortunately the scenario is all too plausible.

    Hi Kirk,

    I think it's the individuals who are pathetic, not their actions.

    Liars are liars, no matter what the statement or activity.

    Well, I don't drink.

    But I think some other members split my ration. :D

    So that's why all your images look like duct tape (the sticky side).

    Turn the iphone around. :D

    Or a white border if you use a 5x7 contact printing frame.

    I just realized that 5x7 contact-printed on an 8x10 sheet of paper yields a 1 1/2" border on all sides.

    Re: Will I get beaten up if ...

    One was mentioned here recently, in a different thread. It's possible.
    I've never seen one, but I'm not a Graflex expert.

    I have no idea where the 5x7 format came from. It's not an obvious...

    Re: Will I get beaten up if ...

    I've always thought that 4x5 was "invented" by Graflex, as being the largest size that could be conveniently carried and used in a "press camera" environment. I was easily created by quartering 8x10...

    Wow...

    A pink Speed Graphic with lace around the bed and a little phony rose on top of the rangefinder.

    The mind boggles. :D

    You need to read what's being posted without applying your own interpretation.

    My post which you quoted was an attempt to identify a resource for digital imaging that I think is quite good.

    Then why don't you go shoot some pictures instead of abusing that poor computer keyboard.

    If money is an issue, you could save even more by not shooting at all.

    I agree.

    Re: Will I get beaten up if ...

    It's in the FAQ.

    Quoting: "For the purposes of this forum, we define "large format" as being essentially 4x5, or larger, sheet film."

    I suggest reading the entire FAQ.

    Back in post #10 you acknowledged the difference between 6x12 done as sheet film v. 6x12 done as roll film.

    I believe you answered your own question.

    Re: Will I get beaten up if ...

    It's the size of the film that matters, not the size of the image.

    Following your argument, a 4x5 would cease to be LF if you used it with a lens
    having an image circle too small to cover the...

    The problem with paper tape is that it's impregnated with oil, which can escape and foul the optics.

    My vote goes to punched cards. Be sure to punch the sequence number columns so the sorter will...

    It WAS LF. Now it's a waste of LF. :D

    Personally, I think LF means sheet film.
