    Big Polaroids

    Most of you are probably familiar, but for those of you who aren't:

    I like his work, I think it is as interesting as the camera at least. Has anyone seen his work in person? I assume they are quite impressive.

    I always wished I could afford to use one of these. I had the opportunity to see a similar one being used to copy art work for restoration in Venice in the '70's while I was stationed in Italy with the Navy.

    It is also interesting that his pricing for reduction prints is pretty reasonable.

    edit: Wrong thread... i should learn to read better. But in the mean time. I will blame my mouse.

    Although, there is an artist, Mark Lewis is his name I think, he built a giant room-sized-camera-obscura-camera-thingy that produces one-off prints about 5x7 feet. They are really impressive, and have a depth of field of about 1mm.... and a flash that is 75% of the legal exposure limit...
