As I said before, I'm in, I'm in Toronto, and I'm in for 100 sheets.
I'd be interested...
I'll actually second 8 Elm. They're also a good place to get more specialty material like stuff to do bromoil, pyro, better papers et cetera. By the way bob, see you at the photo fair next weekend....
may not be what you'd expect!.
It's not just you. I just havn't bothered to maintain my site so I took it down. But as they say... coming soon...
I actually buy from Henry's (queen street only) and Downtown camera all the time.
Cheers
Thanks all. I'll investigate.
That is interesting. I wonder if a slightly different approach would be to extend the back somehow. , because the spring back is lighter than the lens for sure....
Nice to hear from you too buddy ;) How are you doing Frank?
After doing a fair amount of mountain climbing and hiking this summer, I've come back to realize that my Sinar Norma is almost impossible to use for this. So I am going light. However, I would like...
34, and getting older... uuuugh... I can't believe this is the first post I've made in a while...
Information on Rittreck views in particular is rare. Thanks for sharing.
I can actually vouch for the generosity of members of not only the large format community but the analogue photographic community in general. How can I tell? From the few individuals who have...
Ok so one down for now, Something else has come up and I will post it in it's own thread. I need to know if someone is coming up through New Hampshire to Toronto as Amy Rafferty and I need some help...
Fantastic I'lll send you a PM.
Actually student access has been made possible due to generous donors in the largeformatphotography.info and apug community. Originally I was going to lend them my...
Howdy folks.
I am currently running the photography program at Georges Vanier Secondary School here in Toronto.
It's an inner city school in a fairly economically depressed part of town....
Looking good...See y'all tonight!
Ask Frank Petronio! Then again there's probably model mayhem.
Well you saw me with a Korona in the Brickworks. If you liked what you saw, the 8x10 is just a size larger.
Looks good to me. I should try this.
You know it LOOKS like a Korona-Gundlach, but then again all Rochester cameras did look similar. I don't think that it is a Korona however, because in my limited experience, I've never seen Koronas...
Being a teacher is hardly lucractive, at least when you're starting out....
I'm looking at my empty bank account right now.
You know, there are always these big sales of several groups of extension rails on ebay. It's a real pain, but a semi-decent way to track these things down is to measure your camera. At the very...
This is fantastic! Great woodworking skills too!..
Cheers
Well I think that we could be even more adventurous than that. How about a road trip? I know of this really neat place in Simcoe Ontario that I don't think that anybody has cracked yet.... That...
I'd be up for that. What venue do you have in mind?
Thank you both, I will message.
First and foremost on behalf of Georges Vanier Secondary School, I'd like to come out and thank Bob for his donation to our school. I am the teacher he's talking about. As a high school teacher,...
If you need a Norma rear standard I have one I can sell you. Everything is in horrid condition though. Else I am about to sell a few spare Norma parts I have on epay.
Cheers
Which is exactly why the Norma is a nice camera. It holds the damn thing up, with no mess, and no fuss.
Lighter than it looks however. Now I need to find a ~95mm protective filter for it.
Ok here are some images of this thing.
The first image is of the front. As you can see the lens mounting flange clearly overlaps the Sinar lens board. Good thing that the screws for the mounting...
Ok, well I did finally mount it, and I had a request as to how I did it. The answer is that it isn't pretty and you could probably do a better job. That said... I simply did this
The order of...
I think what I may do is cut a giant square hole in a Sinar lens board with a hacksaw and trim down the pre-existant lensboard. Then bolt the two together. That way there won't be too much circular...
Not bad at all. Although if any of you have stumbled across a sinar board with an irregularly large hole, even if it doesn't match, I'd be game for taking it off your hands.
Wish I could, but I am trying to economize by screwing it up myself.
:D
Ok, anybody remember Don Hertzfeld?
Ok, I have this issue. I have just recieved a truly amazing lens, a 610mm Nikon multicoated from John Schneider. But now I'm trying to think about how to mount...
A big camera for the big man. Sounds good to me Frank. Remember where to send your 4x5 equipment!
Awesome. He's been a good soul..
Well I can save you the trouble with Kodak Graphic arts film. Kodalith, 16x20 sheets, process well with constant agitation 6 minutes in 1:50 rodinal, shot at a rated ISO of 6. That's constant rotary...
You know the other place to get good things are fairs. At the last Photo Historical Society of Canada photographica failr, I had a guy virtually GIVE me a lovely geared Elwood 5x7 enlarger.
My suggestion is that you aren't too picky, wait for someone who wants to clean their basement or studio. This was how I picked up my Beseler MX and most of the rest of my studio, complete with an...
