    Re: Show off your camera!



    My pre-anniversary speed, tiltall, trioplan barrel lens out in the snowy woods. A ~~ $400 total setup that made nicer snow photos than my $2000 dslr&lens. A piece of foam pipe insulation on a leg makes the aluminum nicer to hold or shoulder in cold weather. I'm not bragging of complete minimalism; I would have liked to have had the nicer pacemaker speed that day, but the shutter doesn't work right on that one.

    All setup for this shot:

    Alpenhaus converted Polaroid 900 with Xenotar 135mm f/3.5 lens and a flash bracket I cobbled on to it. Works fantastically!

    On the back of the horseman is a sinar shutter and in front of that a 300 Heliar.

    a heck of a lot of monkeysnot..but now I can shoot 5x7 with barrel lenses with flash


    That Heliar sure looks familiar.
    Let me know when you want to get rid of it and I'll buy it back from you.

    OH HELL NO

    I'M LOVING IT

    I went out to test a bunch of lenses..and not surprisingly - the Heliar is my favorite..and..I'm over the mush lenses (soft focus ones)..the Heliar gives me nice soft transitions without looking like I was drunk when focusing like the Darlot does

    examples: TEST

    the Ilex got short shift - there was a light leak obviously in the lensboard set up for that one


    thanks again for the great deal
    if I ever sell it..I'll contact you first

    Time to stop being pretty and show a workhorse - The lens on this is a 360 Heliar, a slightly problematic design which gives it a beautiful glow around highlights down to about f9 (on the old scale) - This, with a 240 Heliar on 5x4", is the main lens for my current Naked Portrait portfolio



    Shown here without the flower pot lens hood that was meant to be a temporary solution for a few minutes, which have now stretched to 18 months - Yes, I will get a bellows hood and look professional again

    Eastman 2D with a Wollensak 1A 330mm Triple Convertible at the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge in western Az. Note the camera is setup next to my truck. I find my best images are made within 20' of it.
