Indeed, nice work Pali. Great to see more panoramas on these forums!

Technika V, adapted Mamiya 90mm f/3.5, Portra 160
Haha, I only kid! Regardless of presentation, his work has really struck a chord with me, and it did so immediately. I can't say that often happens when I look at new work. Bravo!
Excellent work with a challenging format; I fell like he uses its relationship to the cinematic image intentionally, and does so well (e.g. with Cinemascope/Cinerama). I feel drawn into many of his...

I'll keep an eye out - thanks! :)
The 150mm focal length has never been my style - not quite long enough, not quite wide enough for my taste, but I'll look at the CZ/Wollensaks/Kodaks in 135 -...
I've been looking at a small 135mm lens to complement my current lineup of Technika V lenses. I shoot 4x5 every now and then with this camera, though 6x12 panoramas most often. I've been looking at...
In my experience, I've had luck with machinists who do work for very niche/seasonal customers. For example, if it's something I can't do in my own shop, I'll consult a local guy who works (almost)...
A couple shots from my new Linhof Technika 70. I bought this camera for $100, cleaned it up, 3D-printed some missing parts (including the lens boards and the ground glass focusing back), replaced the...
I use Letraset to make my markings. It looks "professional", and you can easily make precise dotted lines with it, or make alphanumeric markings. Right now, I have a + in the center, with two solid...
Hands-down the image on top. Love that deep emerald green, and the highlights on the rocks. Beauty!
Right now I've been going off pictures I can find of it, which are few and far between. Will give it a read, thanks Bob.
I bought some recessed boards the other day! Doing the math regarding their recess and the flange-focal distance of my 65mm, I should be able to focus at infinity with the standard partway on the bed...
Yeah, that definitely makes sense - I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to couple any lens, so long as it fits on the camera and you can cut the right curve for the cam. According to this I...
Hah, I sincerely wish I could! Unfortunately, a student budget is not conducive to that, which is how I could afford the cosmetically beat-up Tech V. Some day though... The TK has always interested...
That could very well be a deal-breaker for me, so THANK YOU for that little piece of information! I have a 65 and a new 75 as well... I guess it might be time to sell that 65 Grandagon!
Thanks Bob, perhaps I'll consider that eBay item then. I'd be interested to know what user experiences are like with that thing.
By the way, what is the proper way to use a 75mm lens on the Tech...
The other day I got a cosmetically beat-up Tech V for next to nothing (nearly free). I enjoy restoring cameras, and I feel like this will be my main shooter.
One of my favourite lenses is a 65mm...
I use a National Geographic "Africa Medium" backpack. They are made by Manfrotto apparently, and the quality attests to that: Best bag I've ever used, and I don't mean just for photography either. It...
Any idea where I could find more about this? I might look into that...
For the sake of experimentation and maybe getting some novel, interesting results out of it; is there any colour film out there that has especially good spectral sensitivity? Sensitive beyond the...
Yup, that's it! A Mordançaged Murderçage ;)

I was struck by just how similar it is to this image, which I'm sure most of us are familiar...
Thank you, I'm quite pleased with how this turned out! Especially since I rarely shoot in B/W.

Linhof Super Technika III, 65mm f/4.5 Grandagon, Delta 100 4x5
Ah, wonderful! I take it you know Jim Kost then, and I'm sure you're familiar with Bealart? I worked as their darkroom technician a few years ago before my undergrad at UWO. They are really embracing...
Glad to see something like this happening around here! I can say that a bunch of us from University of Western Ontario are planning on attending Contact, as well as this symposium. Over the years,...
If it's of any interest to the OP, I'm currently building a 6x9 to 4x5 converter so I can use my 6x12 back on a Linhof Technika 70. I don't always want to lug the 4x5 around when shooting with my...
A few 6x12 panoramas - my recent favourites:

Absolutely gorgeous work with the liquid emulsion, Emil - something I've always been interested in trying.
Has anyone used one of these with a Sinar Zoom rollfilm back? The back itself weight a pound or two, and I'm wondering if it's too heavy for the Intrepid to handle? I'm well-versed in woodworking and...
Great shot Amfooty! Love all the colours you've got going on with the TV and wallpaper.
The following was shot during the recent eclipse; five exposures in total, with two lenses used: A 150/4.5...
I made a mini Technika 6x9 board out of Shapeways' Strong and Flexible plastic which supposedly has good dimensional stability/rigidity despite the name. Relative to height and width, the board is...

Really nice work Dennis, and Sazerac - I particularly like that one of the construction crane. It's movement is very unsettling and unexpected - just lovely!
