I mean common household tungsten lights.

I've been trying to find the best way to properly use daylight film to shoot under tungsten lighting. I've shot using the 80B and A filters(didn't see much of a difference). I've also tried to...

These are both good suggestions. Thanks!

I'm looking to find an online print house that can print 40x50 inch inkjet prints at a relatively good price. Profiling options a must. I'm not looking for perfection, but cost effectiveness and a...

I actually have a 4x5 from them too, the PTB. Its great. I honestly couldn't give higher marks to either camera. The only real reason for the back might be a little silly. I'm trying to drastically...

I've been wondering this for a bit. I asked them via email before and they said there wasn't much of a demand. They make lots of Other sizes just not this one.I'm wondering I'd there's anyone out...

Hey Guys,
I just got the 180mm Fuji f5.6. It does serve my purposes in terms of getting the proper distance and from what I can see behind the ground glass, looks as if it'll survive f22 without...

I'm looking to replace a schneider 150 f9 with something more versatile. Its been a terrific lens but its very dim when focusing in 4x5 and it won't cover my 8x10 at any distance.I'm looking for...

I've had this printer for some time now with absolutely no issues. Here is my first one. When I am using roll paper- I send the image to the printer- (all the paper and cut settings appear to be...

Hey Simon,

That sounds like a real pain. I'm not exactly sure what it is but it could be an incorrect paper setting. If any of the settings in the printer dialog are conflicting with the paper...

I'm in the market for a 17" printer. I've been going back and forth over the pro's and cons of Epson's 4880 and 4900. I've spent the last few years working with both an Epson 9880 and a 9900 in a...

I tried scanning 4x5 negs with both the tray and without. Although the tray is undoubtedly less messy, the scans were sharper without it. I don't think its completely necessary for everyone, by any...

I just got a pretty good one at Adorama for 30 bucks. They're line is pretty good and they've got a few varieties to choose from.

I spent the better part of this summer working on finding the best method of wetscanning 8x10. It wasn't easy.The Aztek video and method is pretty much it, but I do a few other things that I've found...

I just got the Shen Hao PTB a week ago and its great. It has a ton of movements and the hardware is excellent. The pictures on Badger don't do it justice. Its a small but rock-solid camera. I'd go...

These are all great suggestions. Thanks guys. I'll try to track down a Copal 1 shutter/ lens and try some other strobe speeds this weekend. Thanks to all for the comments.

I'm looking for a shutter. or a wide lens with a shutter that will cover 8x10 and has a shutter speed that is faster than 1/125. I've been told that this may not be something I can find. I need to...

F64 does increase depth of field and generally makes a sharp image throughout but be wary of reciprocity failure on longer exposures, which can make a sharp image appear out of focus.

I just got off the phone with a very helpful service rep at Adorama. Long story short, they were very apologetic and understanding of the situation. In short, They made up for the inconvenience,...

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum or not, but I wanted to warn fellow photographers to be very wary of dealing with Adorama in terms of buying/selling used equipment. I just spent the last...

I would sell both and consider getting a lightweight 8x10. I have the Shen Hao Folding 8x10. Its great. It weighs about 9 pounds and folds really small. Its about 1900$. Also The Chamonix 8x10 is a...

I've been using 4x5 for about 8 years and recently have been making prints which require more detail than I've needed previously. Some of my 4x5's just haven't held up to large prints(30x40) even...
