Andy, just to clarify, do you mean B&W onto B&W paper or colour paper?

Andy, just to clarify, do you mean B&W onto B&W paper or colour paper?
Just to finish the story... The photos from the trip are now on my website http://www.duskart.com
I picked the coldest possible week of the year to go as the temperature crept down to zero...
Nothing is better (when you get it right...) Why have all of these camera movements if you can't show them off once in a while! Anyone with a digicam can get everything in focus ;-)
...
This question comes up every now and again. If it's got movements, then it's LF...
Bruce, examples are the Rodenstock 35mm and 55mm. They are a retrofocus design so that there enough room for a little tilt and swing before the standards hit each other.
The new ultra wide angle, retrofocus design LF lenses are still zero geometric distortion. The reason is that if they weren't, they wouldn't sell any.
Scott, the Orbix tilt does not replace the base tilts, it is in addition to it. For landscape photography (in fact almost any photography) it is not necessary to use the base tilts on these cameras....
"I tend to shoot in out of the way, rundown areas (industrial parts of Brooklyn, Bayonne, Newark, etc), so if anyone is ever up for an adventurous photo outing I'm always looking for someone to shoot...
Cheers Terence, I am getting your suggestions marked on the map, and they look like good vantage points indeed!

What would be the best way to get from Mid Town to across the Hudson in the early morning? To opposite North Park perhaps...

John, Bob, David, Jason & Paulr, thank you your replies!
It seems that NY is like Paris when it comes to tripods - you aren't supposed to use one, but you get away with it 95% of the time as...
Very soon I'll be spending five days in New York for the first time, and I don't know what to expect when it comes to a tripod mounted camera. I have taken photos in London, Paris and Sydney and...
Steve Hoffman is right. Your large images are 495 pixels wide but you are forcing them to be 550 pixels wide on the webpage which results in strange digital artifacts.
Glenn, extreme wide angle lenses e.g. Rodenstock 55mm are indeed retrofocus to allow some flexibility for movements. While I agree that there will probably never be a 4"x5" sensor produced, a part...
You will need the recessed board for both of these lenses to get any useful movements (not to mention a bag bellows). You could of course go really wide with the 35mm instead which also uses the...
Robert, how small a box do you want to be in? If your definition of LF is 'view cameras' then you will have some rollfilm cameras included. If your definition is for contact printed black and white...
