    If I shoot a 4x5 negative with my Chamonix Saber (= no movement) is it considered LF? but if I shoot with my ShenHao XPO45 using a 6x12 or 6x9 back is it more or less LF or not at all ?
    Soon we might end-up like APUG where one is not sure if using a Jobo and a motor base is analog enough
    I still need to confess that I was very dissapointed when the small format thread became the repository for testing shots with newly acquired digital cameras and phones

    I am a total sucker for mountain shots so this one is big on my "LIKE A LOT" list.

    I really like APUG for many many reasons, but I have to admit, they are certainly persnickety and often a pain with regards to the "acceptable" rules, sometimes I get really frustrated and often confused about what's ok and what's not, glad you guys are more accepting, now I can post some IR shots I took with my 6x7 cambo back, I was under the impression those were NOT ok...

    Acadia National Park, Precipice Trail Peak overview (I believe).

    Toyo 45a 90mm Schneider f/8
    1/30 @f/16 w 77mm B+W 92 IR filter

    (which I'm actually selling the IR filter $50 off list price BTW and only used twice, bought new from B&H in January, so $110).

    Cambo 6x7 roll film back, Rollei IR 400 120.

    just read the rules: http://www.largeformatphotography.in...rules_faq_item
    this is a picture thread for sharing landscape images. I think there are other threads for Bob Loblaw and his friends to chat.

    "For the purposes of this forum, we define "large format" as being essentially 4x5, or larger, sheet film. We do, however, allow what would otherwise be considered "medium format" sizes, IF exposed in a view camera (e.g. with a roll-film adapter), technical, or old-style press camera (e.g. the various Graphic cameras)."

    That is indeed very clear and settles the issue for good with a modicum of acrimony.

    It is about the camera body (view cameras with movements) -- as per the founder of this forum...with Speed Graphics, P&S cameras using 4x5 or larger, and such grandfathered in.

    Roll film adapters of LF cameras also allowed and dedicated, no-movement 6x17's not considered LF.

    So it goes. Below is a 6x7 roll film image -- Calumet rollback on a Gowland PocketView 4x5. Photo: Early morning (before the flies got too bad), Gums, NSW, Oz., circa 1995, Portra 160 VC if I remember right. Film commercially developed, printed by me (RA4).

    Re: Large Format Landscapes

    And what about that using a technical camera that has slight movements [tilt/shift] with digital LF lens but with digital back, is that considered as large format or medium format?
