Aussie future LF enthusiast!

[Ben Wheeler]

Good morning from Australia,

I've had a vague lust for higher quality images for years now, and every now and then have done some googling about MF film. Just over the last few weeks I've been trawling through this website, and I have to say what a great resource it is! I'm very excited about the possibilities afforded by LF. I'm not sure how soon I'll start purchasing, but at some point I'll probably be looking at either a Shen Hao or Chamonix 4x5 setup with a couple of lenses.

Just wanted to say hi, thanks for all the info, and I look forward to hopefully being a contributing member at some point!

Cheers,

Ben

Welcome, Ben.

Quite a few of us in Vic.

Let me know if you want to see a Shen in person; I have a couple that can give you an idea on build quality etc.

We can also help with where to buy "stuff".

G'day from Sydney.

They're a great bunch here, even the grumpy ones.

Hi All,

Thanks for the replies! I'm very interested to see what's in the For Sale section - I notice there's not a lot going on eBay.

Also, can anyone tell me if there's a way of being notified (within the forum) when threads you're active in have been replied to?

Cheers,

Ben

Thanks for that. I realised also that if I go to "Settings", threads I've posted in that have a reply will show up.
