Hello all. I want to start developing my own stuff again; and I’ve managed to get a jobo rotary processor for not very much....

Hence I could do with recommendations on two things:

1)....

Frank - great stuff. Jealousy strikes home again!

Thanks Brad.... Had a look on ebay but none there.... I do like the idea of the motorised one. When I was out in the US I knew a few people that used them for LF work. Also good as don't have to be...

Can't find that threat Ash, though please feel free to comment on my thread asking about that sort of thing:

Morning all....

I got a LF camera at the end of last year and have shot a little bit with it, though this has only been with Polaroid so far for two reasons:
1) instant feedback for changes to...

Hello all... I don't suppose I can get much help with this, but I'll try anyway..

I've just been shooting tonight with Polaroid Type 52 - I wanted to check out some lighting, and my friend wanted...

I signed up

I use one as I don't want people to search for my name for work-related areas, and find naked models.

T Blair.

Only joking (the name that is), but the reason is true.

I recently saw a platinum print of Weston's, I believe it was of a cabbage or something similar, at the MOMA. I have no idea how to make a cabbage so amazing to look at, or what drove him to do that....

Well i certainly appreciate everyone's insights and Sheldon's great offer..... Thanks all..

If there weren't mugs then everyone would have to sup tea from those pretentious china cups...

Good idea Frank... I would like that, as a naive newbie..

right i get you... so it's not the fact that they use more light per se, it's just that inherently they have a much shallow dof. Hence, to increase it, it obviously requires more light when stopping...

Please tell me more Ron.... I've got a strobe and will get another eventually.... I take it that they are compatable with PC cords?

Really? All I see in their pics is a load of overly-softened digital haze... Perhaps i'm misguided or just plain wrong.

Thanks for the advice everyone though...

Thanks Frank, you took the question about focal length right out of my mouth (or rather, snatched it from my fingers).

I know polaroids are expensive - I'd certainly want to get used to the...

Cheers Frank. Actually spoke to you this week on another site (MM)...

Will have to look at tripods. Got a Manfroto at the moment so I guess that won't take the strain.

PM'd you... would welcome the opinion of others, as invited!

Ralph - thanks. I'll have a better look when I'm not at work :-)

Not that I'm aware of.... I think I'd prefer to be mailing myself back home - it will happen soon, though preferably on a reputable carrier and in a seat, rather than in a box.

Ah sorry.... Well i'm interested in shooting outdoors but not necessarily with the LF.

I think therefore that I'd prefer to be doing indoor work with it - probably portraits & Nudes. I hope that...

Hello all

I'm new to this game, and don't have a LF camera yet (currently shooting 35mm rangefinder & 6x6 TLR). However, I want one...

I don't have much in the way of cash - god damn those...

Hi all, just thought I'd introduce myself so as to not appear rude.... New to this game, and don't have a LF camera yet. However, I want one and will inquire about possibilities on a different...
