    Re: Post Photos of YOURSELF with your camera

    Found an old print of myself with my then-new Rajah 4x5 (exact duplicate of a Deardorf Special)...but before I found out that the back leaked light. About 1980, perhaps May. Damn -- I looked good so many years ago!

    I then took the camera to New Zealand for 3 months of hitch-hiking -- oh, well...if all most all my the film had not gotten fogged, I probably would have been disappointed with the sharpness of many of the images (I did not have the funds for a better tripod!)

    So Deardorff Specials had leaky backs and Rajah copied that too?

    No, the Deardorff didn't leak. That's why you don't buy a copy!

    Okay -- I wish it was an exact copy!! But I did get a Deardorf 5x7 back for it and it fit right on perfectly (and did not leak)!

    Yeah, but $525 new with a new incredibly sharp 210/6.7 lens in a Copal 1 shutter? I should have caught the problem before I left, but I was still too green. The San Diego camera shop owner was very appologic, when I got back from NZ -- he fixed the camera and gave me a good deal on a Gitzo tripod. And I (hopefully) learned a good lesson or two.

    Intrepid 4x5 and me in the Maine wilderness last autumn.

    I've got a Cambo SC 45 too, which I had used for about 7 years before making the switch to a field camera. I've gotten far more use out of the intrepid, solely based on the fact that it weighs nothing and I can take it anywhere.

    My backside and my 11x14 last week in Fern Canyon. And no, that is not a bipod.

    I accidently had my meter set on ASA100 instead of the 25 I would have preferred. The film was Efke 100IR, but is slower than 100 and teamed up with a large reciprosity failure (30 and 60 sec exposures), I am not expecting much. Perhaps an excuse to drive back up there -- we have had more rain which will make the creek crossings more fun.

    Thank you, Levi Barker (nephew), for the image
