Hello all,
Just thought I'd pop in an introduce myself - I'm Adam, from central/upstate NY. Got into LF last year when I was given a Kodak Recomar 33 9x12cm camera, and have been developing sheets from that in my bathroom.
Kind of tired of the lack of film options / accessories for 9x12, so I've ordered a 8x10 with a reduction back (I'm not concerned about unwieldiness), so I'm looking forward to messing with both formats...once I snap up some lenses (it has two lensboards). I'm planning on getting lenses that will work effectively for both format; i.e., a wide for 8x10 that would be normal for 4x5, and a normal for 8x10 that would be tele for 4x5. Something like that - been reviewing several books on view camera so I have my ducks in a row!
I also do some 35mm transparency shooting as a matter of convenience, and a LITTLE 120 play now and then with an old Kodak that's very very inconvenient to use.
Glad to see there's still quite a few folks out there using this stuff!
-Adam
