"Kaesmann polarizers are not available in slim mounts."
Bob, that may be true for Heliopan, but it is certainly not true for B&W. I know, because I own two of them ;-)

Maybe it doesn't cost me anything, but it doesn't work. I've tried registering a couple of times, with...
The only repair company which I have experience with in Japan is Kanto in Kawasaki: http://www.kanto-cs.co.jp/index.html They are basically specialized in 35mm lenses and cameras, but should be able...
Getting your 4x5 negatives developed is no problem, as many of the photo shops can do (not necessarily by themselves, but sending to some central lab), including Yodobashi. The cost should be...
With the digital camera you take your shot, click through the menue, read the histogram, translate that histogram according to your calibration, set your exposure. With the spotmeter, you point it at...
Aaron, while I cannot confirm your results exactly, every meter has a different spectral response. That means it's sensitivity depends on the color of the light. While it seems more or less white to...
I also thought about using a tripod without head for my 4x5" camera, but found that you cannot always level the tripod in the way you need. Therefore I use a wooden tripod from Berlebach with...
Tuan, when I find the time I will do some more tests of the 4870. But until the market introduction of this scanner in the US I still have plenty of time, I think ;-)
Tuan, that Epson 4800 is actually called Perfection 4870 in western countries and GT-X700 in Japan. Don't ask me for the logic behind the naming... It will do 5x7", but it does not come with film...

Nikon still makes them. As well as Wista. Yes, Linhof type boards are by far the most popular ones in Japan and they're cheap here. New ones for about 25$, but you get...
Tracy, it seems that you got a lot of messages created by computers, which sre still infected with SWEN worm. Among other sources, SWEN collects addresses from the usenet. Using an address which...
For Japan, you might have a look at http://photojpn.org/ as a starting point. Have a look at the book review and photographer's biography sections and you will have plenty of material to digest...
Bob, any idea of what the difference is between the new Prontor (black) and the old one (grey, probably made in the 60s)? Are they the same inside or is there some major difference?
if the Apo Artar in Acme shutter still qualifies as small, then certainly a Nikkor M 9/450mm will also do. The biggest thing here is the shutter, which is a Copal 3. This lens has the advantage that...
Most has already been said, therefore just some short comments:
- if you like panoramic formats, using a 6x12 rollfilm back on a 4x5" camera or even a 6x17 on a 8x10" (do they fit a 5x7"?) camera...
