Re: Poll 2019: Age at last birthday
I started learning 4x5 in about 2007, but have been shooting since the 70s (as a kid). I've had my own darkroom most of the last 16 years and took classes at the Danforth Museum School from '98-'03 to have darkroom access before that (and learned a decent amount there, too).

Age 50. Been at LF for about 10 years. Had my own darkroom for 6. Keeps me humble - so many ways to screw things up. Latest interest is contact printing on Silver Chloride paper with Amidol..

Well I guess I'm a member of the old farts club which seems to be the predominate group here.

I was introduced to LF photography at age 7 or 8. When I was 9 I was given a 4x5 Speed Graphic by a local freelance photographer and learned to use it and process and print my efforts. I have not been without a LF camera or a dozen+ since that glorious time in 1937. I will complete my 90th orbit of the sun on Thursday and expect to take the 5x12 to the local lake.
