    Making LF Network Truly Large Format

    The Hasselblad Flexbody is a 66 MF Roll-film camera that uses standard MF lenses (with shutter) but it has ground-glass viewing and some movements, and I have used mine for serious catologue work - of antique silver platters.

    You guys have properly informed me and I now stand corrected. The other site was rife with 35mm.

    The Hasselblad Flexbody must be on the borderline, since it ties so heavily into the Hasselblad system. Most equipment issues regarding the Flexbody would best be covered by a Hasselblad-centric forum, whereas questions regarding technique can be quite appropriate here.

    6x9 cm view cameras, on the contrary, have almost exactly the same equipment and technique issues as 4x5" view cameras. 6x9 cameras can be used with sheet film, and 4x5" cameras can be used with rollfilm.

    Possibly there should be categories for Film:Sheet, Filmholder:Sheet, Filmholder:Roll? But is that really necessary? we are such a small group here anyway? I shoot 6x9cm and 8x10", color transparency film, and I find that the main differences are weight, DOF, and cost. Everything else is pretty much the same for me.

    A better way to keep the noise level down might be to continue to encourage peple write appropriate subject lines.

    The implication would be that questions relative to movements on a Sinar p3 would also be appropriet here - even if used with a DigiBack.

    Hi res 16 shot DigiBacks with mini-monoprails and special digital lenses give a never previously achieved combination of movements and depth of field?
