The reason I got involved in all of this is that I'm in discussion with a publisher concerning a book deal. While outlining the ideas for the book - a study of a neighborhood in Hong Kong much of which will be shot at night - it occurred to me that one visually interesting approach would be to use 35mm for grainy B/W shots, with which I am familiar and somewhat experienced, and 4x5 for finely detailed color transparencies, with which I am a complete novice, to contrast subjects to be covered in the book. I am still in discussion with the publisher but have already outlined two more book projects with which I should be able to use the Shen-Hao.
Upon reflection, this foray into LFP has turned into a much larger and much more interesting project that I anticipated!
Best wishes,
Craig
