I tried Photographers Formulary’s version once and did not like it at all. Very flat.....
I have three from around 1910. They cost me between $2-$5 each about two years ago.
Thank you Calamity .... and yes you did answer my question about the plates you use. The plate size was very helpful. Also I didn't know if you were Japanning as opposed to painting them black. The...
Ms Jane, I have a question for you....
How do you make your plates for the Tintypes? Where do you get the tin, what size do you normaly use and how to you make the black finnish for the starting...
A new baby girl!!!
Congradulations to Jock and his new baby.
I hope it doesn't slow his photography down. I always look forward to seeing his new work.
I was lucky enough to attend a week long workshop with Jock a few years ago. He only uses one lens and camera. An 8x10 Kodak MasterView and a Rodenstock 240mm f/5.6 Apo-Sironar-S Lens (I belive he...
Agfa Photo just filed for Bankruptcy.....
I used there paper, film and chemicals.... Now what do I do?
I agree with Dean. Your pricing was very low.....
It's not like 1/4 page for 30,000 pulications????
No it is much greater then that. How many visits do they get to there Website?
I would price it higher then a 30,000 publication run... And...
If you want to try Platinum printing try http://www.savannahphotoworkshops.com/
For a home darkroom DeVere wins hands down.... Pro quality but easier to move and setup then the Durst.
$300 rebate.... you know what that means. A super 4000 is just about to be released.
Jason, this looks like an eBay deal... other wise I second the Kodak Master View 8x10. If you are very lucky you may find one for $1000
...
Center for contemplative photography. I heard that gallery stinks... Filled with a lot of Shit work.
lol
Yes 200 is what I aim for. Most of the time when shooting outdoors I don't meter that closely so I could be a stop off in either direction. I have only shot it in 8x10 for 4x5 I shoot APX100 and...
Sanders, I love your images of Sunnie.....
I process Tri-x in Rodinal 1:25 68º for about 7.5 min I shoot a little lose so you will want to test for yourself.
I see you also shoot Polaroid type...
I would recommend a Humv H2O. If you don't have one go back to using the Toyo AII in the filed.
Good luck!!!
Thanks everyone... Yes Kirk those are the images I am tring to create. What film did you use? Will Kodak Ektachrome daylight work?
thanks...
I am looking to do an Architectual shoot and had a qustion about film or how to do this.
I want to shoot a Custom Home and a small low rise office building. I have seen some nice Architectural...
Put your hands on a Kodak Master and your deardorff will look like fire wood.
A friend of mine has made the trip 4 or 5 times with a 8x10. Jeff Botz is his name he can tell him anything he want to know about shooting up there.
Its tough without a photo of the lens... but I would say between $600-$750
On the contrary Paul. You are very much an expert on Photoshop. Your website has some excellent information and better yet your images are great!!! I learned much about toning from your site(thanks)....
Paul, you are mistaken.... Everything does not work in 16 bit in Photoshop CS.
You must not use PS much.

Henry, did you try dropping the bed at the same time?
Thanks everyone for your great input. I have chosen a camera and it should be here in a few days. I picked up a older Arca Swiss model AB. It comes complete with camera Lens shade both standard and...
I believe the Wista has less movements, but is a better built camera.
Thanks for all your help... I did mean light weight for those Toyo users..
I think the F2 is the answer. A workhorse light weight and cheap on the used market. Eventhough there is a Bi Kardan on...
What is the best light weight 4x5 camera for shooting architecture. What I am looking at are the Arca Swiss and Sinar A1 or F1. I like the Linhof Technikardan 45s but its too pricey for me. Should I...
Michael, try going down to Home Depot and look for the black plastic dain pipe. The kinded used for french drains. They make reducer connectors 6"-4". I think they would work fine. Very thin plastic...
Edward their is help. I just quit looking at eBay cold turkey... Now i spend my time making images. I feel much better now, and have more fun then ever.
So yes you can quit too. The light is...
Yes Edward, I too am an eBay-aholic. I own two 210mm lens.. Both great deals.
Thanks for all the replies. They really are helpfull.
One more question. What should I pay for an older model A, B, C in reasonable condition?
Thanks, again...
I am looking to buy an older Arca-Swiss 4x5 model C. What do I need to look out for in the way of problems with this model?
Are newer lens boards and bellows usable on the model C ?
thanks for...
Why don't you try a UPS for computers. They are very cheap and do the same thing.... An $89 unit should get you about 100 flashes.....
Another question to think about....
Will the value of hand made silver prints by known artists go up? Since they will become more and more rare will they comand a higher price?
Jesse, I have owned a tech V with the range finder and one that came without it. I like the one without much better. Sold the rangefinder version. Now I don't have to deal with the cam and folding it...
I was just there this past weekend. Great weather. It is worth the trip to go to Savannah. Maybe 20mins away.

300m Imagon in a compound #5.... I have the same lens.... It is great, and don't let anyone tell you that it does not cover 8x10. It covers with plenty of movement!!!
When shooting leave the...
Sam, I would love to join such a group. I don't know of any in the Carolinas, but we could sure start one.
