When I first read that I thought, what the??? Must have slept through that lecture when I was in college. Then again I went to an art school so I didn't spend much time doing math.
After doing a...
Hum--this got me thinking. I agree that glass filters should be placed in front of the lens because of the focus shift but does it really matter if you are focusing with the filter in place? As far...
Need to work on your Google-fu. Here is the GOOD SLEEVES website and the web store. Looks like they have an 8x10 camera case, another case that can carry three 8x10 film holders and a backpack. All...

If you metered for ISO 100 and shot on ISO 400 film you OVEREXPOSED by two stops. I take it this is black and white, right? If so, you're probably ok. Who knows, you might have exposed like Edward...
