I'm still getting my feet wet in the world of LF photography and have only been shooting 4x5 exclusively for about 1 year but I am loving it.
I was somewhat forced into LF photography during a trip to Yosemite last year when the film advancer on my Pentax 67 broke within the first 5 shots of the trip. After trying just about everything to fix it, I had no choice but to use my recently-purchased Tachihara 4x5 that had languished in my camera bag for the past several months unused. I was forced to learn the patience required to manage the movements of the camera and - by the time I left - I couldn't imagine taking a picture any other way. Since then, it is my Pentax 67 that usually stays at home while I take my 4x5 for long walks in the woods. Below is what I consider to be my first 4x5 shot.
This site is of great help to me and hopefully I can connect with other LF photographers in the area.
Regards,
J
