Hi,
I know this is a more formal forum when it
comes to do light readings. I know it may
feel almost as an insult not to meter light
with a spot meter. However, if you have
done it, or think...
Hi,
Thank you : )!!!
I have enyojed reading your posts!
I'll get some more sheet film holders,
the Domke bag, and use the older
boxes and bags that I have.
Hi,
What do you use?
When I take pictures. The sheets are usually developed the same day.
This frees up space for new sheets to be placed inside the holders. I
currently have six 4x5" film...
Hi,
I would at least use f/8, or f/11, and even f/16
Don't worry, even at these apertures you should
be able to have in the pictures the 'creaminess'

I treasure what you say about the camera. It looks like a wonderful camera.
Also in the sense that it has not changed much. That what is important is...
Hi,
Which Linhof Technika camera would you use, or get, if you were to get one?
Would it be a Technika IV, or any of its younger siblings like the Technika,

I'll try to get the proper cable release. But at first, it may

Hi,
I am using a lens on a Prontor 1 shutter.

P.D. An interesting portrait in the following link. Please notice the description,
it is not f/5,6, nor f/8, but f/11, what I find quite good. One does not need to
go to f/16 or f/22 for a...

Hi,
I don't seem to find much information about lensboards with '48 mount' or '48MT'

Hi,
How do you clean your ground glass and make it brighter?

Has anyone used this lens? Is it a nice performer, what do you like about it?
It seems to me that its 'overall length' is shorter than that of most other lenses.

Hi,

For example, a LF lens with a 150mm focal length
will be multiplied...
