Hello to the LF world. I've been taking pictures in SF (small format - 35mm) for a long time, and more recently in MF (Mamiya RB67) too. Now retired, I have indulged myself (my credit card hates me!) with a long-desired move up to LF with an Omega 45C (4x5) monorail, Fujinon 90mm and 180mm lenses, and various add-ons like a bag bellows and some film-holders. All from Keh Camera in the US - a really helpful bunch, but their website should carry a Surgeon-General's warning about its addictive properties!
No film exposed yet, though. Since I don't have a vehicle, I'm working on a back-packing system to get the gear out and about; and the recent series of winter storms has kept me indoors. But spring is on the way, so interesting times await. Meanwhile, I'm learning my way around the camera and the LF way of working.
I have to say that already this forum has been a great part of the learning experience, with so much knowledge and experience available from just a few taps of the keyboard. Thanks a bunch, guys!
