It's a big country. The high winds Michael regularly experiences out west don't seem to be much of a factor where you're shooting. What works, works! :DQuote:

PS Luis: the negatives are perfectly sharp, thanks for asking!
I only mentioned it because my Wisner 12x20 took a gust of wind while photographing in SW Montana a number of years ago and was in the process of going over while on this identical tripod and fortunately I was able to catch it in the process. Scared the B Jesus out of me and it happened out of nowhere completely unpredictable. The surface area that the wind has to push against the surface area of a ULF camera is incredible and the ability of the heavy camera to rotate over the mid point of two leg extensions can happen in a second. I call it risk mitigation. From that point I only put my ULF cameras (12x20, 8x20 and 11x14 V11) on the Rise A100 or the Majestic. Whatever works for you.Quote:

Me with a no name 5x7 camera. Unlike what it seems, my left hand took that photo with 4x5 camera placed on the other side.
Great one!Quote:
