Maybe I missed smth, but I didn't understand what is rear standard parallel to the subject. If shooting trees, or grass fields, or a man... how can you define the plane/line to which the rear...

Nobody was tough here, that what I like in this forum :).
I do agree with you here. Thanks!

Nice photos you have in the forest. What is clear here - is that 72mm doesn't look tooo wide in this space. 72 perfectly suitable, 65mm would be good too.

Whah, Corran! Thanks for your comment.
I was (and still) afraid that the markings on the Shen Hao railings can be not that accurate and can have some shift. But you use PTB version, so you need to...

I used stoppers for quick positioning the Standarts. But stoppers won't allow me to focus closer then infinity (lens must go forward for this) when I need this. You say me to use marks on the rail,...

Oh, you misunderstood the main idea. The rail serves as main constructive element, holding Standarts. Standarts are moved by the rail quickly (rapidly!) for corresponding lens position, set by...

Thanks, Joseph! Making the camera for film back which can be bought is a nice idea, I like it. I do understand that would make the designing and production much more easy.
In my concept each lens...

:eek: Woow! Thanks for telling! I didn't know.

As I told I was going to get rid of those cones. Which are heave, huge, expensive and slow to change on most system.

Ha-ha, not even close! 47 is for 4x5. as you know. On 4x5 it's about 13mm equavelent. But on the 6x12 you have much "longer" equivalent, I guess about 18mm. That's wide, but that's what you need in...

Lachlan, I didn't say 47-65 cover 6x17 (166mm at f22). I said it's not a problem. Shoot 6x14 or 6x12. If shooting 6x17 (when you didn't insert the masks) with lenses, you'll get some crop. Nothing...

I don't think this is a big problem, at least for me.
Their throw is about 1sm.
The helical throw on my camera is about the same.
My 90mm lens seems to go forward for about 2mm when focusing to...

I don't have any Shen Hao or its back, so this question is for Lachlan. I just see the window for 6x12 frame numbers in Shen Hao film back.
I guess there are simple masks which can be placed in. One...

I use CF with my Gaoersi/DaYi 617 and 90mm. CF is must have. So there is nothing new for me.
Which Shen Hao 617 do you have?
Does Shen Hao allows to use 47,58mm lenses? I guess it should. If not on...

No, hoffner, I live in the Future! :)
Concerning viewfinder, you are right - I do have Graflex Sport finder, I do know that to observe the frame, I need to turn my eye left and right. That's...

Thank you, Lachlan! Your post is very useful for me! Looks like I can be happy with Shen Hao TFC617.

I thought about this method possibly with Shen Hao TFC617. I asked about this kind of usage of view camera one rather famous Russian photographer on forum, but he told me to forget about this, I...

Hi, Dan. Thanks for your reply. But why did you call it limiting here? 47-300mm perhaps are easily possible, I'm sure. It would depend on belows. View cameras also has some limits of below extend. I...

Hello, comrades!
Panoramic photography is my hobby, I use 6x17sm Chinese noname (Gaoersi/DaYi mix) film camera with 90mm Fuji lens.

I not satisfied with the design of existing panoramic cameras. ...

Great image!

Hello, Alvandi! Thank you! I visited your site and was shocked! You made such a wonderful camera Panoral 617! Great job!

Great shot! Maybe I would like a little wider horizontal view (but keep the vertical). May be, I'm not sure.

YES!!! I Love it!

I love it!
