I am not a member, and the rates for insurance look reasonable, but once you add in the yearly/mouthy membership fee its seems expensive. Do you recommend this coverage? Seems like it could be a...
Hi All,
I have posted the same question on Rangefinder Forum, but I wanted to check here to see if I can get a good diversity of responses. Also, I've been away from this forum too long...as I...
Basically, I'm just looking for a compact and fairly light tripod (hopefully less than 20" folded) that will handle a Really Right Stuff multirow pano kit with Mamiya 7II and 150mm lens. I want the...
Yeah, the cantilever (tiltable) column is on the Pro, and that appears to be the only difference between the Pro and the Classic. The more I think about it I'm pretty sure I would go with the...
Has anyone used these?
It looks like a great design for lightweight, compact, yet sturdy travel with my Mamiya 7IIs and RRS pano kit. Thinking about either the Classic 8214 or Pro 8314. Ive...
I do the same, and they come in 4x8 ft sheets. If you wanna get fancy a hinge can be made with gaff tape.
Ha! Best response yet!
I have to say this has been a very amusing thread to follow.
It sounds like we all have our own hopes and dreams for this camera which is great!
Personally, I will happily put my Nikkor 90 f8 on it, use the provided sports finder, attach my Sunpack potato...
Awesome, I pledged for a 90mm version. Good luck with the funding, and hope it happens!
Eyes, two of them.....though one works in a pinch.
I used a bag for years, it was great for traveling, and I had no problems with it....until the day that I did. When I got a whole batch of fogged film back from the lab, I threw the bag in the trash...
I did a similar series in color with very long exposures of people in rooms lit by televisions. Not necessarily sleeping, but watching television late at night will tend to do that to people.
It was...
The one thing to look out in a 135mm is coverage. I had the nikkor for many years and and thought it was great. Then I started using more movements and found I was running out of image circle. I was...
I have gotten away with using a 450mm on my 4x5 f2 with just the standard bellows, so without the intermediate standard and extra bellows. But the shots I have done that on were near infinity and...
Awesome! I think its looking great! Cant wait to get my hands on one of these
If you are refering to my comment about my old workflow and gear where I mentioned that my old lenses could have been part of the issue I was seeing, please take this with a grain of salt. It could...
Ha! yeah it certianly would, thats a good way to put it. Like I said, it would be wierd....but as long as its the same film and it means its around longer it seems like a good thing to me. The same...
yeah exactly! I buy as much as I can, but need a larger freezer, not because im stocking up per say, but because I have a very small alotment of freezer space.
I just read an article that stated...
I agree with those who like Portra 160.
I do generally shoot landscapes, but prefer more muted tones than some. Also I love the dynamic range and can often retain shadow and highlight detail...
Interesting, but personally ill keep buying the real stuff through Aztek as long as I can. I really like Aztek and appreciate that they still service my scanner so I try to buy as much from them that...
I moved from Seattle to Colorado almost 2 years ago...and in terms of photography I really miss it. It doesn't rain in the northwest as much as everyone thinks, sure its overcast a lot, but I think...
Yeah John that is really nice. This plus your recent post on the Urban Landscapes thread with the awesome flag has piqued my interest. Do you have a website or online portfolio where one can view...
yeah, that is pretty awesome....anemic flag with red dripping on it. I like it.
Yeah, I would absolutly to have a Sinar P2's, a 4x5 and an 8x10! I certanly wouldnt think of them as settling. Looking at a Sinar Bron catalogue from 2005 it looks like a P2 4x5 ran for $9,181.25,...
When I lived in Seattle near my (shared) 9800 I printed large negatives for a photographer who was making platnium prints. It seems like a cool process, but at least the negative printing was very...
I posted this same question in Ari's thread that he linked above.....but does anyone know of a good method for for marking negs that will be drum scanned in Kami mounting fluid? I would really like...
Glazers! I miss glazers!
Yeah get a lot of extension rails. I have an F2 8x10 much like the one pictured (minus the flat bar and 2 clamps). I store the whole thing on a 6 inch rail extension so that it is nice and compact...
I like KEH for lens caps. Or if you want to get fancy you can have SK grimes custom mill them:
http://www.skgrimes.com/products/lens-caps
...ive always wanted to do that because I think the...
I like the towel! Did your sinar just get finished with a refreshing dip in that stream? ....but nice P, wish I had one.
Gaff tape is designed to not be permanent. It's intended to be used kind of like painters masking tape. It creates a good enough bond on surfaces such as wood floors or carpet to hold cables and such...
I agree that you don't need too many. I got by for years with a 115mm. Then I got a 90, 135, 210 kit that lasted me another 6 or so years.
But now I carry 6; 90, 120, 150, 210, 300, 450. I find...
I don't on purpose...but I tend to like shooting on overcast days, which was fine in Washington as there are many overcast yet non-rainy days. But now that I live in Colorado I have learned the hard...
Well, the Mamiya 7 can use 35mm film of course....as long as you have their 35mm panoramic kit....but im sure the seller is not aware of that.....
Awesome, thanks Preston! I will give that a shot this evening.
Hi all,
I realize this is not a computer forum and there are other places I could post this question, but I really like LFPF and there are a lot of people here who know a lot more about this stuff...
Hmmmm....if I was building an all around kit for 4x5, I would probably keep my 120, 150, and 210.....but honestly my most used lenses on 4x5 (in order of use) are 150, 300, 450...though this might be...
It must be a counterfeit and therefore worth nothing. I'd be happy to take it off your hands to hide the evidence......;)
Sorry, couldnt't resist....its a slow day at work.
I'm sure someone...
I really like the idea of Kodak boutique stores. Yellow Kodak branded store fronts would look awesome. And yeah they could do workshops, classes, photo shows, and sell inexpensive hip cameras like...
