Brian,
What tripod would you recommend for a really really light LF camera?
And after that, what developer would you recommend for 4x5 Acros 100, but not for 120 Acros? Definitely not 120.
Kirk,
Do us a favor, eliminate the games.
Just post the post that got Frank banned.
Really!
No, not at all. I chose my words purposefully and carefully.
You are not the first 'moderator' who I have encountered, who acts like you are acting.
Additionally, you have violated this...
Kirk,
87238
That is my notion. I hold it. It is true that I hold that notion. And your posts, and rdenney's, are truly reinforcing that notion.
I will expand it to include others, as...
Are you calling me a liar, Kirk?
Please, attempt to quote anything I wrote that is untrue.
Your postings on this subject, and tone of them, do not convince me that this is anything other than...
I doubt it. So there is doubt.
There were about four or five photographers, who are members or posters here, I had heard of before coming here. Frank was one of them.
All this statement...
Thank you for the post and link, Jay.
In my experience, bannings such as this one are due to personality conflicts rather than actual violation of any real rules. The moderator just doesn't like the poster.
And considering the...
I agree.
Thanks light guru for the link.
Hasselblad FlexBody or ArcBody with a digital back perhaps.
There's a shift tilt Rollei, XAct, or something.
Maybe there is a back for the Fuji 680, dunno.
I tried the Beseler 45A Minolta flash head.
If you're not dodging and burning, it might be useful for production level print making. It has built in Variable Contrast effects. You need the...
"Why use any pyro at all"
Pyrocat HD is about the least expensive developer you can buy.
If you mix it yourself from chemicals it works out to about 200 liters per $50. Roughly $1 per gallon. ...
Who is the ex member?
And why is he banned?
First pyro for a beginner?
Pyrocat HD, from Photographers Formulary. Premixed in glycol.

Then go from there.
I think he should do a whole series on the topic.
I would pay admission to a gallery of such an exhibition. He could be the next Mapplethorpe for all we know. Collectors pay very good money for...
Jim,
Check places that carry aquarium/mini reef stuff. They have water chillers that are thermostatically controlled.
Not cheap, but they have come down in price, and way cheaper than a new...
I think the sentence about Adams using Polaroid is a little misleading.
From the documentary videos I have seen him photographing, it was used as a settings proof, same as most people used it...
Today we have that word, propaganda, inextricably tied to meaning lies and falsehoods.
Much like the word eugenics, which only means good genes, it is tied to other contexts including genocide. ...
One of the traits of Diafine is that it is reusable. If you are adding Photo Flo to it, are you just tossing it after each use?
Hopefully many here are skilled at creating creative manipulated prints on the Darkroom.
When I scan my negatives I really try to restrict the manipulation to what my skills are with an enlarger...
I would crop it like this...
They eat vomit.
But you can't sell vomit really, novelty vomit is inedible and you can sell that. Maybe sell prints of vomit, fine art prints.
Well that doesn't work now does it.
Thanks Bob.
Do you sell dog food?
It makes a difference if you do. If a photographer(or his or her agents) can double the sales or double the price of the prints by calling it fine art, then so be it. Most...
Nm, dumb post after what Bob said.
I don't need to activate the Rollei lens shutter. The Nikon already has one.
I will look into the adapter. Thank you for the hint.
Keep doing what you're doing. Good score on the tripod.
When you start selling your prints, you'll be able to go back and buy all the expensive stuff if you want.
One significant advantage...
There's no rule you must, have to, print 6x6 square.
You can print 120 6x6 with any aspect ratio you like. Seeing how you're already shooting square, you're actually less restricted than shooting...
" An 80mm MF lens would give a FOV roughly equal to a 120mm in a standard DSLR lens on full frame"
I'm sure you have this off.
An 80mm MF is going to be 80mm on the DSLR. But the 80mm on the...
Make me one.
How much would you charge to machine a Rollei 600X lens mount to lens board adapter?

Doesn't acid strip some of the stain?
That's the rationale for using TF4 fix(or non acid fix), I thought.
I use water anyhow for film.
"How would you feel about Migrant Mother if it was titled, Mom Comforts Kids after My Little Pony Breaks?"
That's not really the title. It doesn't really have a title does it? That's just what...
Fair enough.
Ps, I didn't mean to say that cotton or peas are not grown in the CV anymore. I'm pretty sure that it's all picked by machines these days. Cherries and much of grapes are still...
I need to follow up on something. It doesn't make any difference to the photo. It's just a logical question I have about how people think.
When you guys say that "they were not pea pickers" what...
" that Reminds Me of Suffering Among Migrant Farm Workers"
Seriously?

rdenny,
The daughter said they, the whole family including children, picked everything they could. The photos were taken at the pea farm. The older children would pick in front of the mother, as...
