After a 20+ year hiatus from LF format I am taking the plunge in a big way.

I just picked up a Toyo 810M, 3 lenses, 10 film holders and assorted accessories.

Way back when I shot a little 8x10 in the studio, a little more 4x5 and mostly medium and small format in the field. This camera is going outside with me.

For the time being I'll likely be shooting Ektar 100 and scanning it on an Epson V700 and printing it on my Chromira printer. Eventually I'll likely try to find an 8x10 Durst enlarger to add to my home darkroom, the camera also included some custom 8x10 developing tanks and hangers, they haven't arrived yet but will be on the way soon.

Wish me luck as I head back under the dark cloth. :)

Welcome to the group! Sounds like you found yourself quite the set-up. I look forward to seeing some of your scans.

Welcome back to the fold. A lot has changed since you last squeezed off a frame or two, yet much remains the same. Enjoy !!!
