Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum, and have already enjoyed going through many interesting and thoughtful posts/discussions, here. I've been photographing -- both B&W and color -- with a 35mm Canon outfit for years (AE-1 and F1N), and am currently researching equipment for LF photography.
I'm primarily interested in environmental portraiture (but not exclusively), so I'm investigating folding/field cameras and appropriate lenses. I'm just not sure whether I'll jump into 4x5 or 8x10. I'd like the flexibility of a few output/presentation options, whether they be enlarging, contact printing (silver and alternative), scanning/digital printing/web presentation; we'll see...
Some LF photographers that I admire and have followed through the years: Eugene Atget, August Sander, Evelyn Hofer, Jan Groover, Sally Mann, Judy Dater, Frank Goelke, Thomas Struth, Alec Soth, among others.
I look forward to participating in the forum.
Cheers,
Andrew
