I'm not so sure lens brightness depends solely on f stop---for ground glass viewing that is. Film responds to light coming in at different angles pretty equally, but a wide at 5.6 vs a tele at 5.6...
these guys are in chch, they might be able to help you out or point you in the right direction.

I use a 405 holder with my sinar p2 and it slides right in. The only issue wrt the polaroid pack film backs vs regular film holders is the thickness.
I have the manual as well, but there isn't...
I have the same issue---there aren't any bags made for monorail type cameras, only cases. So you can either take the case along ing a buggy/cart or tear it down and fit it into a bag. Neither is...
hi, I was wondering if there was typical exposure compensation to apply when shooting instant film.
ie, if the final shot is on neg/slide, and you meter for a certain value, will that setting give...
I think auckland has an airport rule (not carrier) that limits carryons to 7 kg because of some stupid relic of boarding planes from those stairs (like of like at sjc). I was pulled out of a line and...
the only issue I've had is in airports where they enforce the weight limits for carryons (auckland....grr).
the case weighs 6+ kg empty, pelicans aren't exactly light.
the sinar books are hard to find, and thus fetch a premium these days. Good info though.
what is acceptable to one is not acceptable to another. Plug your drive in, if you're getting frustrated, time to buy more gear.
keep in mind this is from someone with 4 x 10k drive raid0 array to...
I think the best you can do is plug it into the other controller.
drive arrays (raid0) are installed as pairs of (usually) equally sized drives. And if you want to stripe your 80 and 250, you'll...
I was talking with a commercial photog once, and he said that at some point he was buying a case of sinaron lenses direct because they promised that they would be consistent wrt color---so yea, it's...
smaller is definitely better for retouching/photoshop work. I have a 12x12 and a 6x8, and use one at work all the time---there really isn't a point in moving your hand a foot when a few inches will...
gary's right. The filter holder fits on the back of the sinar shutter (notice the mounting points above and below the shutter opening)---but I don't know what brand and type will fit in there besides...
there are people who offer a (photocopied) copy of the original manual on the auction site---but that may just be a operational manual, not a guts and disassembly type.
best bet is to probably...
great info, gotta love this board!
I will have to check out heroes and microcosmos (which a few friends saw a long time ago and raved about).
so I work in visual effects, and I came across this article in one of the trade blogs:
http://www.fxguide.com/qt/161/mercury-masterpiece
they say that the spot used camera movements---this is...
true, but usually the weight isn't an issue unless you are seen struggling with it. The pelican 1510 weighs a fair bit on its own, and this was an issue for me once in my many travels (in auckland...
you could probably "recess" the shutter instead of getting new boards for your lenses since you're rigging it more or less. Maybe stick a set of throwaway glued together bellows between the standard...
I wasn't aware of this shortcoming---I was actually planning on remounting my 90/5.6 sa in a copal 0 because it's getting a bit hard to work with for far objects with significant swing/tilt.
is...
from what I've read, the fuji pa45 and polaroid 550 are more or less the same in function, the difference is in quality (and maybe this just has to do with age as you can still buy the pa45 new).
...
so is washing (not soaking) in water not a good idea?
okay, pack and top sheet salvaged as I opened it up in a changing bag and felt around for the top white tab, put in in place and closed it up.
so it looks like the adhesive that joins the white...
can I still salvage this pack? I've read that the 550 holder should work.
what should I do now, thread the white tab through the pack halves join?
also, did I do anything wrong?
(don't know if this is the right category)
so I tried putting some fuji fp-100c45 into a polaroid 550 back today. I've used polaroid pack film in a hasselblad polaroid back before, and didn't have...
hi guys, got a noob question.
I'm getting into 4x5, and I picked sinar mostly due to how the whole system works (modularity, reusability, reputation) all which should ease my frustration with the...
thanks all! and yep, I plan on testing with instant film before I set off, as well as while I'm shooting. Because of my digital background, I'm quite familiar with photoshop and other manipulators,...
hello largeformatters.
I've been lurking here for quite some time as I've been piecing together my kit over the past year or more. Reading mostly about equipment, not technique just yet.
