I've looked all over the Nikon web page for info on their LF lanses but have found none. What's wrong with them? Thanks for posting this info.

I use Agfa APX 100 sheet film and love it. I started using it in 120 rolls, and it's now the only B&W film I use, regardless of format.

I saw a few negative comments above on Fuji Provia 100 F, so I thought I should voice my support of the film. It has a more neutral color balance than Velvia, and thus is much more suited to...

I spoke to a pro once from NYC that had a 11x14 camera and was using paper as the film (I guess 11x14 film is hard to find). Seems like he said he would later remove as much of the paper backing...

I also recommend that you try Agfa APX 100. It's my favorite B&W film.

Paul, do you mean the UMAX Astra 2200, rather than the 2000? Also, what files sizes do you get when you scan a 4x5 slide at full resolution?

Thanks for that perspective, Dave... (And, of course, thanks to all the others that posted an answer.)

I recently bought a Sinar F1 and a Nikon 210mm/5.6 lens. I realize that the Nik on lens is not a macro, but how close can I focus it before I exceed its limits and enter the macro realm? I'd like...

You asked: "What's the equivalent focal length when 210mm lens used with a 6x7 rollfilm back?"

A 210mm lens is always a 210mm lens regardless of the film size used. The only thing that will...

Here's a much more recent example of LF price increases. The Sinar F1 was $1850 two years ago at B&H. It's now $2311. That's a 25% increase ($461) in two years.

I saw a used Fatif 4x5 camera in the local photo shop the other day. They're ma de in Italy. Anyone have one of these? They do have a web page (http://www.fat if.com) with a few photos of their...

The nature photographer Christopher Burkett uses masking to control the printing of his 8x10 transparancies. He gives a brief overview of his process in his new book (Intimations of Paradise), but...

I recently bought Christopher Burkett's book Initmations of Paradise, a collection of his 8x10 color nature photos. In his technical discussion, he says that he controls constrast during printing,...

Sheldon, Thanks for the link to more info. Since I see that you have a Calumet C1 (although for only one month), could you provide a few comments on the camera's design, functionality,...

I received Christopher Burkett's book "Intimations of Paradise" this weekend (a GREAT book of LF nature photography, by the way -- go to www.christopherburkett. com) and he mentioned that he uses a...
