What's your Favorite LF Accessory?

Iris clamp / universal lens mount. Not having to make/buy lens boards for all those vintage flange-less barrel lenses is a blessing.

OK, I have to change to iris clamp too. Don't know what I'd do without that.

Not sure they are my "favorites" but perhaps my two most essential accessories are a pair of reading glasses and a headlamp - both so I can read the millimeter scale on my camera in dim light with old eyes when doing focus spread calculations. Helps with seeing the aperture and shutter speed scales too.

my 1930 black Derby hat

I use it as my shutter instudio

I don't really go out too much, but I did last weekend and then it was my heavy duty eddie baer canvas tote

If you like the Derby you should try a Homburg some day.

Better yet, a bacon cheeseburger!

My climbing harness and climbing rope. They allow me to go places while shooting alone that I would never attempt without them - especially when there is snow or ice on the ground.

My favorite LF accessory is the factory 5x7 extension back for my 4x5 Nagaoka.
The only problem is that for lenses longer than 8" there is shadowing on the long side, reducing it to a 5x6.5" image on the GG. OTOH, I think that Paul Strand intentionally had his 5x7 Graflex permanently reduced to that dimension -- not a bad precedent.

I would have to say a 6x17 roll film back for my 5x7. It opens up a whole new range of options compositionally and my choice of film for the 5x7.
