Thanks everyone! Cable release sockets are what i need, for two of my copal 0 SHUTTERS. Used to be able to find them at b&h. I think the problem is that the taper of the thread on the cable and the...

Ok, so either my googling skills are useless, or these things are really hard to get a hold of... two of my lenses are in need of new cable release attachment thingies, threads no longer usable, any...

Hello all, thanks for the advice, i have loosened screwws and applied some wax and everything is now smooth and squeek free! Now i just need to find time to get it out in the field! Thanks!

Moisture probably has something to do with it, i work in the wet often. I keep a big bag of silica gel in my bag to keep things dry, but i'm not sure it does the trick. Have not loosened any screws,...

So, i know ths issue has been addressed here before, but my searches have come up empty...

My SV45ti has developed a very sticky focusing rail. The front standard is the one causing trouble, super...

A sandwich of two negs, the portrait is FP4 in ID11 with the white background sandpapered out to alow the text to show. The text is...

Lovely Steve, your image has a very gentle feel about it and I like the curves in the treetrunk and branches.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Thanks for the comments all, David this was made in the West Coast National park, about an hour's drive up the coast from Cape Town, South Africa.

Trees, as requested...

A misty morning in the dunes, it took me about a month the get all the sand out of my trainers again... Ebony SV45ti, Nikkor SW 90mm F4.5, Velvia 100

A couple of not-so-recent ones, Tomiyama art-panorama 6 x 17 (hope that qualifies as LF...), Velvia 50, 90mm SA.

Portraits aren't my usual cup of tea, but here are a few i did recently, and really enjoyed, so there may be more following soon...

Hi David,
Orms mentioned above are the only retailer that occasianally stock a bit of 4 x 5 film, but very little variety (usually only provia) and stupidly expensive. I never buy from them, always...

Indeed it is, and thank goodness for that, i need to update my profile...

Thanks for the comments folks, i pleased some of you are positive about it! These flowers were out in force this time last year, and I've been keeping an eye out (since i can see this spot on my...

Yes, finally! thanks Jimi

You know how some images just seem right even though no one else seems to like it? This one always gets passed over when i show work to other people but i can just sit and stare at it.
Nikkor 90mm...

Schneider 65mm SA F8 worked great on a flat board on a technika color, till I dropped it in the ocean, continued to work well after being fixed until it got stolen... The lens is lovely and compact,...

Thanks Robert, I have a very poor memory when it comes to charging batteries... I'll be going back to the same area in three weeks, maybe i'll come up with something better then, i have a new LED...

Lovely photographs abound!

A (fairly) recent image, 3 hour exposure on Velvia 100 at F11, 90mm Nikkor SW, Ebony SV45ti. Lighting on the tree is with battery powered spotlight thing, if the...

More "knee deep in" than "at the edge of" but I suppose it qualifies. Ebony SV45ti, Nikkor 75mm F4.5, velvia 100, polarizer.

From an area called Sanddrif in the Cederberg, about 3 hours from Cape town. It was so cold i had to carry the tripod back to the car...

Many very cool images in this thread, makes my cable-release-button-finger (is that a proper phrase?) itch.

A fairly recent effort...

On my first outing with my first LF camera, a technika color, i was standing on a large seaside rock photographing the sunset. Of course something had to go pear shaped. When i removed the lens, 65mm...

drool, drool, slobber. Jim, your images are consistently spectacular.

I also use it on 4 x 5. The only time i notice a change in brightness is with big lens drops or rises, and even then it is not an abrupt darkening and not very significant either. I have never even...

I have used it with various 4 x 5 cameras, RBs etc., it is nice and simple to use and the self locking adjustments and quick adjustment thingies work very conveniently once you are used to them. It...

I haven't had the 6 x 17 out in a couple of years, so here are a couple of not very recent ones. Tomiyama Art Panorama with an old 90mm super angulon on Velvia 50 and 100 F.

We get very little in the way of snow here, had to go quite a long way to get these... Ebony SV45ti, velvia 100

I have no idea what kinds of trees these are from, there are at least two species represented... Ebony SV45ti, Fuijinon A 240mm, Velvia 100

Ooh ooh, i've got another. My wife's cousin's "is that an LCD on the back of your camera?" was good for a few giggles.

Last saturday i had the ebony out for an airing on the beach when a scrawny, digital compact toting individual saunters up behind me. He proceeds to watch me like a circus act for about ten minutes...

Sekonic L558. Having both spot and incident makes my life easier, sometimes i just can't decide what should be a midtone...

Thanks Darlene!

I may have shown some of these elsewhere... sorry if i did...
All Ebony sv45ti, velvia 100

Newish ones, all ebony sv45ti. Purplish one and the other wider view nikkor sw 90mm f4.5, detail nikkor w 150mm f5.6. All on velvia 100

I have an empty film box with the light tight envelopes and cardboard sleeve clearly marked "exposed" on the front and back of the box into which film goes once i've exposed it. Just remember to tell...

I have used two 270 rotelars and was resoundingly unimpressed. As mentioned the image circle is quite cramped with soft corners that don't improve very much with stopped down. For this size and...

I use the 2530ex model (with dodgy centre column design) with my ebony and lenses up to a 450 fuji, and so long as wind doesn't interfere it's perfectly adequate. Even with wind most of the vibration...
