Try shooting with intent and purpose.

I took my P45 and ALPA tech camera to Iceland in 2010, camped in the glaciers and had zero problems with capture or batteries (it was below freezing at times). I have photographed with the P45 here...

Bought!! I will have a look at it later tonight!

John,

I do not think there is a quick release (QR) system with your tripod head, but you may be able to use an add-on, but I would not if I remember how my Ries head was designed (sold years...

John,

What tripod head are you using?

John,

I do not believe that is a 'quick release plate'. I believe it is the original tripod plate. You would need to attach a quick release plate to it that would be accepted by your tripod. I...

lmao!!

Are you saying a person's age has a lot to do with being a master printer? If so, I wholeheartedly disagree.
BTW, what age would you consider 'master status'?

I would do a test shoot side-by-side with your MF and LF. Same film, processing, scanning and printing if possible. If they still look the same, send the film for processing to a lab (not home...

I used them for two years when I was in the last years of my commercial portrait/special event work. It made it easy for consumers to purchase prints directly on line and then have my lab of choice...

Thank you Ken!! :)

If you want serious user experience with working, owning, buying and selling digital backs + tech cameras, this is not the group of photographers to ask--you need to ask experienced users of this...

Drew, you may be right, but a lot of film cameras have dropped to the cellar as well. Have you priced them lately? I bought my P45 used and have used it for three years now and have no intention on...

As far as focusing goes, I shot this using a hyperfocal technique (easy):

Owning a digital back will save you a tone of time. I ran out of time for film processing and scanning. I grew to dread the scanning part a lot!

I shoot a P45 with an Alpa Max and two lenses (SK...

I really would not trust that tripod. I once put a Wisner 5x7" on a Gitzo that was rated for up to 4x5", I learned quickly what "up to" meant shortly after racking it out. A later phone call to...

Meticulous.

Thanks Jackie, but I need more notice (maybe next year?). I have animals (more than the average) I would need to make arrangements for and work to schedule around, but I will be following the blog....

Love it--wish I was a part of it (I am woman)!!

Thanks Merg!

Sorry, but the SPAM attacks started a couple of years ago and so I had to implement this extra step of validation!

Wayne, Thank you! Thank you! and one more, THANK YOU!! ;)

That sucks!! Sorry for the @#$%, but I have 2 iPhones and I use one for something other than a phone (no service).
Thanks for the heads-up!

Thank you Bill. I appreciate your patience with me this year when I accidentally put someone in front of you. I am getting older, but more mellower at least! ;) Hope to see you next year!!

Darr

Wow, thanks John!! Your participation is always something I look forward to!

My bad. I know the design is different. I guess floating elements are on other type lenses.

See this thread, it explains how the macro lenses are constructed and "No floating elements" ;)
...

A floating element may be included in the lens design so it can focus closer than normal lenses.

:) :) :)
I am sure one of our lens gurus here on the board can add more. I am a macro shooter and...
