I use Capture One and Affinity Photo (Scans from VueScan), and have been experimenting with different ways of doing the inversions... It doesn't have to be all that difficult... and it seems to do...
3 Legged Thing has a leveling base that can mount to 3/8’s

I actually had to buy a really long Arca plate to make it work how I wanted... Since it would work, just enough clearance, after it was mounted... but didn't quite have the room to mount easily on my...
There’s a Benro geared head (they inly have the one) that does a decent job. It could be a touch more robust, but when I bought it I had no interest in buying a $400 head also. Pretty sure the Bento...
I mean... when I do use a Zoom lens, I 100% choose the lens based on where it's range falls within those guidelines...
In fairness, I'm falling victim to the thing I'm calling out in the 150mm as "normal" argument for 4x5 and working off of those assumptions because that is what I've shot for over 20yrs... either...
Unless you are accustomed to working with 35mm to the point where you want to have a reference for eyeballing, which was the point for me... For instance when I first shot with the 162mm that came on...
I divide my 4x5 lens by 3.75... That gets me to a place where things "feel" right, regardless of the exact comparison... So my 150 is just wider than "Normal", my 65 feels pretty dang close to a 17mm...
Nice, this is what I was looking for!!! So, it is a thing that folks have tried... Have you tried on anything wider than the 55/3.5 John? Also, was the bellows factor figured based on multiples of...
I in no way considered it an easy question. It was a question that I lacked any idea of where to start. Beyond asking if any had tried it and if there were directions to be pointed towards.
Now I...
Is it not the point to learn? At least that was in large point the reason for moving from 35mm to MF to now LF... since it all ties in somehow. Beyond that is all started in Non-Linear Post...
This is promising.
In this particular train of thought, I'm definitely thinking super macro... well above 1:1... based on what I was thinking... 3:1 - 5:1... depending on the lens in...
I'm definitely not "set on it"... since as of right now, I have no way of mounting a lens to a board. But the idea of the wider lenses in macro space is appealing. I've had lots of fun shooting the...
Alright, so I've been thinking about macro on 4x5, off and on, as I learn more about how Large Format works. I'm still doing a lot of translation between smaller formats and this newer large...
...How do you even focus at that kind of bellows draw?...
I’ve been playing with this on 4x5… but have been having a hard time figuring out the minimum focus distances…
So… I’m responding to follow and learn…

It’s a pretty great piece of software. No comment on the file management though, I do all of that myself and “import in place”. I use it as a file viewer since the OS lags like crazy looking at tiffs...
Should you choose to notch, I don’t think a “column” is required, since your holders are already numbered… just notch per you current numbering… that is what I’m currently intending… I just have to...
While not to the point where I'm doing anything this involved, this is part of why I was asking/looking into this option... I also, in smaller formats shoot a lot of differing formats/cameras, so I...
So the SC2, SCX and SCN (45) the standards are indented both ways… so they can be fully turned around… Which I imagine is for this very purpose

If you are able to turn the entire rear standard/block around that’ll get you part of the way there… or do the standards on the legend not come off the rail?

When I was googling, I somehow missed this article!
Not sure how I feel about spreading the notches all along the edge though… might be good in case your scene eats some part of the notching in...
Also, are your notches on both sides of where the dark slide would be? It' looks that way based on the posted image.
This is a great way of quickly IDing what's in the holder, thanks for that option Alan.
Doremus, that’s exactly what I needed to see!
So you’re notching from the same corner where the Film Notches are? I understood that it was recommended to do it on the other side. Are there ever...
My apologies, the issue I’m having is visualizing the effect on the film…

Hello to the group.
So I'm looking onto notching my film holders for the sake of better organizing my process... I'm keeping notes that exist in a Airtable DB that seems to work, so far... but as...
Well… I can’t say what exactly is different, but I was able to get it… though I takes a bit more oomph than I’d prefer… it feels like the light trap is just a smidge smaller… though I will have to...
Checked again this morning, it definitely does not not fit the SCX. It seems as though the top channel for the light seal isn't exatly the same, or fro some reason it's requiring more force than...
Well, I can not triple confirm at the moment, but I'm pretty sure... since the normal bellows went right in, while the wide angle bellows wouldn't seat at the top... but I'm not so proud that I won't...
I know this thread is super old, but I just bought an accordion style wide angle bellows that I figured would fit on both the SC and the SCX and, while I could very well be doing something wrong, it...
Just a question, are you using the healing brush directly to the "Background" layer? I would imagine that would cause some recompression, but if you do it to a new layer, it "shouldn't" impact your...
All scanning done in VueScan for now, intend on giving Silverfast v9 a look, I could never get in sync with v8, with Epson flatbed. I also don't do much correction in VueScan... I save most of that...
So I wanted to correct myself... apparently at some point since version... 11 or 12 of Capture One, when I last tried to import my 617 scans, the max file size has been increased... dramatically....
Right now all of my scans are organized by Chemistry (BW/C41/E6) > Shooting Foramt > Camera Roll... Each "Camera Roll" is labeled as Camera_Emulsion_Roll#... I do all that before jumping into...
I was just looking at Photo Mechanic, per this thread, and I'm wondering is there a way to "ingest" and create a usable library, without moving files? Like I can in Capture one? I love that I can use...
Thanks Jerry, I will get to reading those this evening. Kinda posted on the fly while I'm at work after taking a minute to read a couple posts...
So... I recently have jumped into the LF pool, with a Cambo SC monorail... Still waiting on a lens... BUT, the camera did not come with a rail to tripod clamp... that's on me, there was no picture of...
