Hey everyone, thanks for the helpful advice. It solids like the Super Speed is good to not get rid of immediately...I have found that front tilt is awkward and limited, and of course rear movements (as seldom used as they are) aren't there. I also like the idea of using off camera flash, so I need to look into a different lens/shutter combo...but first thing's first...I'm trying to work on my B&W negative technique while working full time...trying to learn how to apply the zone system while also learning a LF rig is enough to give me plenty of homework. Throw in that I sprained my ankle a week ago, and it's "interestingly trying to break out the LF rig. Though maybe there's a mini 365 type project in it for me...hmmm...great to meet everyone and thanks for the input!!
Welcome about from a fellow Atlanta-area-ian. I work in Sandy Springs and live north east up 85.
Dis-agree with Bill and Ian. Junk that old Speedy and investigate the Chamonix camera. I've owned one of everything and it's the keeper. Unlimited movements. Light as a feather. Rock solid. Not expensive (relatively) for the intrinsic value of it.
If the Speedy has a cloth curtain shutter that works, keep it for when you wander off into barrel lenses. Very handy, but a good camera with movements opens up entire worlds of possibilities.
You should be able to find the Classified by now. Thought it was only 30 days wait.
Roger, nice to meet you-we should get together for a shoot when I finish nursing this sprained ankle. Jim, thanks for the input-useful advice. I can now see the classifieds section-cool!
Argh, too late to correct the typo I just saw. That was supposed to be "welcome aboard."
We tried to get some locals together before but it never seemed to work out. For one thing, I work nights all week so I tend to be up late and sleep late weekends as well. So mornings basically never work for me and most of my photography is done during times of DST or at least later sunsets than we have in the winter.
Fellow Atlantan here as well. I live over in Marietta. If you guys get together, I'd love to join.
