New to 4x5 and this amazing forum

**joeyrsmith** · 26-Jul-2009, 17:26

Hi there, my name is Joey.
Just dove into 4x5 with a newly-old purchased Busch pressman d.
Plan on developing my own B&W negs -- chemistry and such in the mail to me.
I have been in the photo biz for a good while now. Been doing medium format panoramic work down here in the FLorida Keys with medium format.

I know want to go further with B&W 4x5 pano and landscape photography.

I know I will be asking a lot of questions soon. It been a long time since I hand processed. Should come back to me quick.

Thx for this cool resource.
Joey R. Smith

I am assuming that he means 5 large format cameras. Not the little ones.

That would be pretty impressive. I'm at 3, although I told the wife I'd sell the two clunkers when I got the Shen Hao. Still, there's a temptation to get an 8x10...
