What part of...

According to which rules?
Wow... you may be right but that hurt none-the-less. :p
Agreed... and the one time I posted a small format image as a "study" to be later recreated in LF I was sharply shat upon and made to feel small and insignificant. I didn't bother. Thank you. I...
Like you and the other Mods weren't already aware of this issue.:rolleyes:
Leigh / Brian... You guys need to chill out and have a brew... or two. ;)
Dammit, Mike, you've exposed us ALL!!!
Yeah, tho-th theeFL light-th meth thingth up for thure.
It'th not pink... it'th THAMON!!
I was a man once... then the neurologist told me I am no more so, most of the time, I'll be carrying a sissy little-girl 4x5 with RFB.:D
Hey Brian... I intended no offense.:)
My arguments are purely academic and are only intended to provoke thoughtful conversation. FWIW, I too consider 4x5 sheet film the minimum size to be...
Brian... In my day they called that rolling "*****" but I never did that and it's cruel. Drinkin' and rumblin'... I'm ready for.
Leigh... you kill me. You really do. Yeah... I need to get off my byootox and shoot some film. :D
Yeah, yeah... I can shoot six 6x12cm roll film images for the overall cost of a single sheet of 4x5 cropped to 6x12cm. FWIW, I'll also be shooting 5x7 and stitching to 5x10 or 5x12 when I want better...
Well... I guess I'll never understand the definition of LF. While I'll agree that 120 roll film is not large format, I believe that shooting 4x5 sheet just so we can boldly state we shot an image in...
LOL!! Okay EvonH. Me thinks I need to quit playing with you. :D
There's never, ever, anything "obvious". ;) :D
EvonH / Leigh...
Now I understand. I can crop 4x5in or larger sheet film as much as I like and it will always be LF but roll film, regardless of size is never LF... at least not with the size of...
I never claimed to be sane. My inquires are hypothetical anyway since my largest camera is 5x7. ;)
It was stated earlier that 4x5in film cropped to 6x12cm is not LF and this is still in question....
Provided not even 10 percent of the image is cropped? If I shoot 8x10 and crop to 17.8125 square inches (full 4x5in image area) that's still LF but if I crop it to 16 square inches it's not?
Ahh... okay. Then 4x5in isn't large format because the film holder crops it in-camera to 17.8125 square inches. :D
BTW, I'm mostly playing here... just being facetious... mostly. ;)
LOL!! Yeah, okay. :D I'm just trying to wrap my head around this concept. So please... please... all us smaller folk want to know. Is 4x5in film, cropped smaller, still LF? If so, then is 4x5in film...
So I can shoot 4x5in then crop to 6x7cm and that's LF? :)
So... if I shoot 4x5in sheet film and crop to 6x12cm that's LF. But if I shoot 6x12cm roll film with a 4x5 camera that's not LF. Hmm... yeah, I guess that's technically correct.
