Just stumbled into this site and had to join. I began shooting large format back in 1970, attended two Ansel Adams Workshops (when Ansel was still teaching them), and generally became obsessed.
Age has caught up with me and I don't pursue it any longer, but this forum sure brings back some memories.
I still have all of my gear and once I get my act together will be offering it for sale in the FS section. Things like 8X10 Deardorff, old Linhof Kardan Color (Technica on a monorail), Tachahara, etc. Lots of lenses, Schneider, Nikon, etc., all pristine. All of my lenses cover up to 8X10 and all lenses are mounted to fit on all three view cameras. It will be a shame to break up the setup. Great to see people still using these things though. I was afraid large format might die. There's nothing like the feel of a great view camera.
