Yeah, I can definitely see where you're coming from with that rifle thing. I could see it myself originally. Searching "Burke & James Grover 8x10" will show me many similar monorails, though more...

This is a camera that I posted around a month ago. I was considering getting it and I pulled the trigger.

It's what I believe to be something along the lines of a Burke & James Grover. I'm not...

I figure I'll join in, though I'm just starting compared to many here.

Bought a Cambo 4x5 with
Fujinon SW f8 90mm

Sold it for the money and because I wasn't using it

Bought a Wisner 4x5...

I don't have any children yet, but if I did, and I got that quality time, I'd put up with damaged negatives of paying for a different system/tank. That's cool

I haven't tried the taco method, but from somebody who has started shooting large format much more during the last year, I've gone through between 200 and 500 sheets. I have probably...

Luxuries? uh...

I appreciate having an enlarger that goes up and down without having to turn a crank. That's what my Beseler 45MCRX has. I appreciate having a 4 bladed easel. Instead of hanging my...

I'd just like to share a story and give my thoughts as a beginner, comparatively.

About 6 months ago, I had the opportunity to purchase a large amount of photo paper. It was from a family whose...

I'd love to get in on this one of these years. It's a pretty cool idea.

From somebody who got started last year more full time in large format...

I bought a wisner 4x5 which has a ton of movement and control and while the camera isn't all that geared (except focus)...

Hopefully you can tell from the photo, but These are some of the other things the CAME with the camera. Yep, I went in and asked about it, checked it out, and decided to take it home since...

The camera does have it's own clamp and tripod mount, though I have been to see it and it is a bit different than most more modern cameras. You can indeed see from the first link about a similar...

If you've only shot 14, chances are there is some use for the film. Sometimes it's just getting in the practice of shooting. Develop a couple and confirm that there's nothing on them, then burn them...

That's what I was thinking, from the inside edges of the front standard and no brand.

Where would the metal pieces come from? A donor, or is it common to actually make this stuff?

Oh! And from...

What can you tell me about this camera? I'm considering purchasing it, but I want to see what I should look for when I'm there in person.mit doesn't seem to have any branding and the website doesn't...

Thanks for a quick response. Do you know where they get this "Rodagon" name? Is that what's assigned to the way the elements are grouped, or something else? I need to find a page about all these...

Hi all.

I picked up a new enlarger lens and the price seemed pretty good. I keep looking around and finding what seems to be the same lens, only everybody seems to be asking for much more. I'll...

Photo flo

My bottle that I have is so old, it says one capful for every 1.18L. The cap is very small too, and I usually put 3 almost full capfuls into an Fallon of water. I'll get some distiller...

I've had this show up on a number of my negatives where I've never seen it before. I believe it to be from the photo flo/drying step. I've never had it before this last week, that I've noticed, but...

True, the focus is also behind her. With the wild swing, it's puttin her left eye, dress near the shins, one of the tree trunks, and the grass in the back in focus.

I'm doing a number of...

"Behind Me"

In this, I thought I'd try out a bit of the swings to add dramatic blur. I used my Wisner 4x5 Tech, 210 Fuji wide open at f5.6, and swung the front standard full towards the...

He sounds pretty smug there at the beginning. Still, I prefer freestyle.

So, you're asking what we do to label our negatives? The method you described, if you can get it to work, otherwise, some of the film holders I've purchased used have either been notched on the...

Thanks everybody. I'll go back and try it with a lower contrast filter. I still want to have some brightness in the clouds though. Hopefully it'll be manageable, or maybe I can get another shot...

I wasn't aware that it would be that much different if burning with different filter grades in term of grain. If I burnt it with a 00, that would be affecting shadows and highlights together, right?...

For reference, this is the one of Clyde Butcher's negatives I was referring to...

Hi everybody. I've been printing a bit recently and came across some 16x20 Kentmere matte warmtome, if I remember correctly. I'm using 4x5 and in this case, I'm pretty sure it was ilford FP4+. The...

Cool! I've photographed my flute and piccolo too but never large format. I've got a Powell Conservatory and a Hammig Piccolo.

I know I'm late on commenting but search "Andrew Laverghetta Vivaldi"...

Thank you! I was looking for something to photograph...so...I found something...lol!

People usually ask if I'm getting some good pictures or ask if it's old or if it's just made to look old. I've had a couple people photograph me near my camera.

I need to get it out and about more...

I like the 35mm idea. I'll have to buy some 35mm though and get it shipped to me before I can do that.

Apparently I've been failing on my 35mm developing. I'm guessing there's a leak in my...

So, did you not read the fact that I have too little time and funds to test this film that I don't use as my main film?

"Don't ask for help, test it yourself like I did," is all I got from those...

Ok, cool. Yes, give me the dough to buy all the film so I can test, and the density meters, or densitometer, or whatever.

Or, since I have limited time and resources, I could have fun shooting...

Let's try a screenshot.

Is this accurate?

Hi all. I've done some searching on the Arista-labeled 400 ISO film in 4x5 size (or probably any size, really) but I can't find what I'm looking for.

I've got the reciprocity app and whether I...

Same here, but insert Indiana.

By looking at the photos here, I know what I'm actually looking for when I make test strips. "Oh! That's how I can get a print to look like the one so-and-so posted...

Sorry to dig this up,but I'm looking for info on these easels too. I've got a pretty good easel for 11x14 and full bleed (or near enough to) 14x17 paper. I don't want to assemble something...

I have a Sekonic L-308S FlashMate for incident and flash meterings and a Pentax Spotmeter V and I've never felt like I've needed anything else.

Price of the two might be similar to a nicer meter...
