I'm sure you will understand how excited I am today! I got my 4x5 camera today thinking that it wont be here for at least another week. :eek:
Since I've seen one in person before, I was unsure how to load the film backs into/onto the camera. I did thankfully find a manual on the net that showed a photo of a film back loaded.
NOW that I know how to load the film backs onto the camera - I am an incredibly happy camper! I cant wait for my film order to arrive! :D
Question though for those in the know - I have a cheap (inexpensive) Sekonic light meter that Ive used in the past for cameras (120mm and 35mm) that didnt have a meter with great success. Is the meter use the same with this sort of camera? I mean for example if I have it stretched right out (close ups?) will I need to compensate a bit? Or take the meter reading?
Thanks in advance.
