I was just notified of this old thread.
Still shooting my G690BL somewhat (getting more into medium format digital right now).
Here are a few shots taken with some Ektar 100.
...
Then the fog closed back in, so I headed down the mountain. A foggy hike down gave me a few more photography opportunities.
...
All images are shot with a Pentax 645D.
I decided to go up to the park yesterday for some hiking and photography. Up at 4 am and on the trail at 5 am.
I hit the clouds while driving to the...

I rode down to Broomfield today to watch a local airshow.
This year's show was much smaller than the one I went to a few years ago. Mostly older planes and no real military craft demonstrations...

I am a staff member of "The Other Guys", a tier 1 chapter of MultiGP. MultiGP is an FPV quad racing organization. If you've seen DRL on ESPN, it is just like that. In fact, I've raced with most of...
Today I went into the canyon to shoot my third plate. I had to make a darkroom out of a cardboard box and a tarp since you have to do the whole process in a matter of minutes.
I still have a lot...
Here's the stl for those that want to print their own. I can print you one as well if you'd like.
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2767768
I'm offering to print them for $10.00 plus shipping. If you have a 3d printer, I'm also going to put the STL file up on Thingiverse today.
Yeah, the adapter seems to work great. I could print a couple out for you.
Thanks Paul! Its going to take some study and a lot of trial and error, but that's the fun part.
My first wet plate!
My aluminum came in, so I shot my first plate. Pouring the collodion is going to take some time to learn. I don't have a proper silver tank yet, so I just sensitized the plate...
Not yet, I'm still waiting on the plates.
I designed the opening to be slightly larger than 4x5 so that plates don't need to be perfect to fit. I think I allowed about 1/32" on a side.
I designed it to fit true 4"x5" plate. There will be a very small edge unexposed around the perimeter since the graflex film opening is slightly smaller than 4"x5".
Yes, I measured a pack and have the registration down to .01mm accuracy.
Thanks for the heads-up though. I read about the registration problems some were having with conversions.
Sure! I should know by the end of the week if it is working right. I'm just waiting on my chemicals and plates to arrive.
Metered and shot at 25 ISO.
8x10 Tech Pan is pricey!
A few days ago I bought a few boxes of 4x5 Technical Pan from Ebay. I LOVE Tech pan in 35mm format and wanted to try my hand at using it in 4x5.
Today I shot a couple of shots to see if the...
Here it is printed. Should work perfect!

Well, I'm getting everything ready to start shooting wet plate with my 4x5. I have the plates ordered as well as the silver bath tank and I'm in the process of ordering all the chemicals.
That...
I'm wanting to get into wet plate photography. I might do a little glass plate, but I think anodized aluminum is what I will mostly be using.
I was looking through the various wet plate kits...
I went hiking over the weekend in Rocky Mountain National Park. I'm a pretty lucky guy as it is only a 40 minute drive up the canyon.
Here's one shot taken from the hike. Shot using a Zone VI...
Here's an overall shot of the totality. This was taken with my little OMD EM10 and Samyang 7.5mm Fisheye lens (a VERY wide lens).

This was taken the night before the eclipse at camp. The Milky Way was extremely bright and there were many shooting stars throughout the night. I have more to process but will probably leave those...
Here's another shot, taken just a second after the first photo I posted here.

The eclipse was awesome! Here's a quick edit from one of my shots.
More to come later!

Last week I had a cousin come visit me. I showed him around some of my favorite places, one of which was Rocky Mountain National Park.
Now, I always have some sort of camera with me when I go out...
Yes it is. Coming from shooting large format, having to get through a roll, even just 8 exposures, is hard some times.
I usually set my shots up and don't just snap away. 8 exposures is ideal,...
Great, now I'm going to have to go look for a 65mm lens! :D
Some really nice shots there guys.
It has the 100 mm f3.5 lens.
It's sharp wide open.
This is quickly becoming my favorite camera, well, second to my Zone VI 4x5 anyway!
Here are a few more shots from it.
...
Thanks everyone!
