Hey there, new here.
Have a Chamonix 45n-2 coming soon. Have a Calumet rail system that was gifted to me and I've been inconsistently experimenting with it the past few years. It's too heavy for me to get around, though, with so it just sits in its case.
Anyways, I mostly shoot digital (Fuji X). For 35mm, I only use a Widelux F7. I'm slowing/simplifying my life and as a result of that, my approach and outlook when it comes to making photos. So I sold a bunch of excess camera/photo gear and sprung for the Chamonix. I have a few personal projects that I would love to incorporate 4x5.
Looking forward to seeing what I can learn here and maybe share some of my results.
I'm very cerebral when it comes to making photos, looking at photos, and discussing photos/prints/books. I like to make photos of people and engage with them. It gives me fulfillment to make photos like this and contribute to what will someday hopefully be vernacular photography. Also, chatting/collaborating/sharing with other photographers is right up my alley. I provide prints at a discounted price for local photographers who want their photos printed. And I kind of obsessively like to collect things like photo books, found photos, vinyl records and baseball cards.
Finally, I'm on the hunt for a custom dark cloth. Wanderer has some nice looking cloths but wonder if anyone else has any leads on other places that sell custom cloths. Draw string cloths seem to be what I think I would want, instead of elastic or velcro ends. The cloth I have no has velcro ... and I hate it.
