3 Weeks ago I got one of the last ones made (in a nice modern Compur - love this shutter).
I've used the lens only once so far and I'm unable to assign a useful rating yet.
I'm a LF-novice and...
fieldstone church, Lichtenhagen
Parts of it were built in the 13th century.

„Monochrom“ and Calumet have shops in Berlin. I don't know what they have on display, though.
What I meant to say is that the 2561/2563 will hold 12 4x5-sheets - just like the 2551/2553. The 2561/2563 needs just a bit more chemistry to do so.
If you want to develop larger quantities of...
The 2551 (Jobo MultiTank 5) is the smaller one for 2 2509N-reels. The slightly larger 2561/2563 (called MultiTank 6) will hold 6 reels with 35mm-film or 4 reels with 120/220-film. But 3 2509N, if...
Jiri, maybe there's a solution next to your door - Foma does make a B&W-reversal kit. At least it's offered here in germany (sold here...
My record is 360 negatives at once without issues:-) But I'm talking about 10 rolls of 135/36 - 5 pairs of Fuji 400 or 800 back-to-back in a Jobo Multitank 5. It was the only way to deliver some...
Here's a place in germany offering 3 different C-41 kits (Fuji, Tetenal and Rollei): macodirect.de , located in Hamburg.
nordfoto.de (in Norderstedt - close to Hamburg) is offering a wide range of...
I've developed a lot of C-41 (mainly 35mm and sometimes 120) with a CPE-2 and never had a problem. For handling the large drums needed for 12 4x5-sheets (Jobo Multitank 5 - #2551 with magnetic...
Cor, I had similar marks with the 2509N too - but I thought I bend the negative (in the film-holder loading/unloading-process) to much and a „crack“ or something in the base caused the problem. This...
No problems here so far with 6 sheets of 9x12cm or 4x5 in the 2509n (black baffles attached) with rotary processing (B&W only).
@ alex best: What a beauty! What is it? A 8x10 from the 50s?
@ Darren H: Great set-up! I have a similar F-Line, with a standard rail and the locking-mechanics for the horizontal shift look...
Cemeteries - especially older ones - are places with a rich fauna and flora, pleasant quietness and sometimes surprising buildings for me.
I was talking with the manager of the local cemetery today...
Here's a picture of a ruin I've shot a couple of times before.
I was never really happy with my attempts and this one isn't an exception.
The - to my eyes - perfect point of view is a popular...
Here's one from today. I'm not really happy with the tones but at least I've managed to realize my initial framing-idea. Maybe I'll re-shoot this one on a cloudy day...

@ Igor: Thanks a lot for this hint - I was already looking for another cheap but sturdy tripod with a lower minimum height. And I'm glad I'm not the only one carrying a monstrous Schiansky :-)
@...
I would bet on something like raindrops on your lens. My LF-experience is limited but I got this kind of ghosting while shooting (35mm) in the rain (or shooting soccer-players celebrating the victory...
Welcome and good luck finding the needed holders. I have a „Tropen-Kamera“ from the late 20s/early 30s and I haven't figured out what kind of holders it needs...
Lots of beautiful cameras...
Here's a peek at my recently re-activated Arca-Swiss.

Great thread! So many inspiring photographs here...
bbuszard & k_redder: I really like the composition of your shots. And I hope to get equally beautiful tones sometimes...

@ Daniel_Buck, many thanks for starting this inspiring thread!
@ Steve M Hostetter - love your leaves!
@ Rory_5244 & Sascha Welter - thanks a lot for your kind words!
sheeep and adamc - fantastic images!
I'm still dabbling with Mr. Scheimpflugs principles.

Sean, I vaguely remember using some kind of displacement-spacers (hollow black plastic donuts) in the big drum if I had to develop less then five 35mm-reels to reduce the chemical-consumption (this...

Ahh, much better now - size matters :-) - beautiful picture with fantastic tones, Brad!
Rhemz, nray, JRFrench & Sascha Welter - many thanks for your kind comments!
I'm impressed by the wide variety of excellent images here - from uber-natural looking scenes (Rhemz, just by looking at...
Carsten, as far as I know the CPE2 doesn't work with the Expert-drums. You need a CPA, CPP or one of the bigger Autolabs. Simma-Rollers show up from time to time at the german auction-site - for...
Sascha, Kato Sangri seems to be a cozy place - but parking could be troublesome :-)

This is actually my first shot with the 4x5-camera after 10 years.
I hope to get more practice in the coming weeks and months.

Thanks!
Maybe I have to assist an ULF-photographer for a day - my 4x5 would feel much less cumbersome the next day...
Some days ago I've looked at a friends neat Horseman FA - and was impressed...
Thanks for the „welcome“!
It's a 4x5 F-Line Arca-Swiss, beautiful made but large and heavy as hell.
The lenses are a 150/5,6 Apo-Sironar-N and a 72/5,6 Super-Angulon XL.

Hello from the baltic coast!
I'm not exactly a LF-newbie but my experience is rather limited. In the late 90s I bought a 4x5 viewcamera, a superwide and a normal lens and some accessories to capture...
