    Re: Starting out, where to buy gear?

    I say to heck with the idea that "real photographers use film". That's dead. But view camera photographers like to control the plane of the film (or sensor) and the plane of the lens.

    ditto. The internet is a wild wild west full of goodness and craziness. The mods (and the forum culture too) have done a good job at keeping this forum civil and useful and interesting.

    All I know of Sweden I learned from Stieg Larsson. So it sounds pretty cool except for the little islands of sociopathic rich people.

    That would work very well. I use a 055XPROB with a ball head with a fairly heavy monorail. It's plenty strong. The 410 head would be better.

    Re: "blue" concept in a B&W photograph???

    Work it on multiple levels, like a person that is sad, but also tint the print blue. Or cyanotype. And somehow work the word "blue" in the picture. Pile it on.
