I have a 4x5 Crown Graphic that I want to use handheld but I'm finding it hard to do so. Maybe it's just a matter of getting used to it, but I feel like in focusing, framing, and then taking the picture, well, I feel like I'm too slow and I'm missing something. I know it's possible to do all kinds of photography using this camera, there are examples of it being used as a street camera, to do portraiture, sports photography, etc, so maybe I'm doing something wrong. Are there any books or videos on technique about using the Crown Graphic handheld?
Thanks.
