I make large fullframe analogue prints shot with a Wista VX and have never seen any evidence of vignetting in any of my shots (I use 90, 125, 180 and 210mm lenses).

I have been to Japan a few times now, to travel around with a 4x5 camera and a tripod. Never had any trouble, Japan is a photography loving country with a rich history of photography. You will see...
I would get a laptop with an ips panel, and a lot of ram if I were you, and a screen calibration device.
I have been struggeling with uneven development as well. I have now solved this by doing stand development with the taco method in my FR daylight tank.
Only tried it once, but so far it seems to...
My apologies, I never realised that if I replace the images on flickr they would disappear here in the forum.
Sorry guys!

The difference, and increase in quality from 6x6 to 4x5 is significant.
Thank you, here's some work from Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Thanks guys for all the answers! Very nice.
I think I will go ahead and buy the unit.
Hi everyone,
At the moment when I scan my negatives I am doing this in a local photolab where it is possible to rent the Imacon Flextight x5 by the hour.
I now have the possibility to buy a...
Looks to me like this might be a v700/v750 with different holders and lightsource?
Sorry, I did something stupid, replaced it in flickr and now it has gone off here as well, can you fix this admin? Thank you.

Thanks Earl. I shot this at midnight, so used a very long exposure (30 mins, f22, Fomapan 200), so that could partly explain it, when I tried to make it much lighter it looked a bit weird and to...
Thank you Harley.
Thank you Rick.

My first attempt at shooting and developing black and white. Need to learn a lot still but am pleased...
If you are looking for a lens in that focal length range; reversed my Fujinon 125mm will fold inside my camera.

Thanks so much guys, I have thought about the fedex option, seems like a good idea, but do they not xray these shippings?
I think I will try and find a lab and buy film in one of those places in...
Hi guys,
I have travelled on single flights and return flights with unexposed and undeveloped film many times without seeing any negative effects.
Next month I will be flying a total of 9 times...
Over at APUG there is a thread about Fuji 160ns being discontinued (http://www.apug.org/forums/forum40/127192-no-more-fuji-160-ns-4x5.html), is this true?
It is still on Fujifilm's website and is...
hi, thanks for your answers. I have a Fujinon 210mm on (permanent) loan from a friend. And tough the angle of view is the same, there is something else about the Mamoya I like, the way it renders the...
Hello,
I sold my RZ67 kit to be able to buy a large format camera and lenses about a year and a half back. Recently I have been missing the 110mm lens for that camera quiet a bit and I am now...

I have done some tests with the lens at f16 with Portra 400, they look nice and sharp, however the first one does seem to lose a bit off sharpness at the point deepest into the frame. In the second...
Thank you all for your answers, you have been very helpful.
I am wondering, why does Rodenstock mean on their website when they state: "working aperture f22-f32" ? If it is not for sharpness...
Thank you, good to know.
I have this book, love it. I somehow never consider apertures that small when shooting 4x5, I am afraid I will not get everything sharp in the frame, f16 seems to be to big to me already, but maybe...
Thanks a lot for the quick responses guys.
Portra 400 is a good idea as well (I tend to use fuji 160ns mostly). It and shooting at f16 will give me a lot more speed. (I also understand that portra...
