I'm space challenged like many of you...here you go. These are kind of left to right.

It was more for calling home to say good night to my daughter. :-) I'll be with a group.

I'll be South, those North permits are tough!
Thanks

I assume the answer is no, but, does anyone know if there is coverage in Coyote Buttes?

I got a Z1 a few years ago, with their lever clamp. I somehow broke the lock on that lever in one trip. Ended up not liking that lever anyway. I've replaced the clamp with one from RRS. It is...

I use cotton gloves. Well, I usually wear one on the hand that will handle the film the most. The other I often go without to make things easier.

Perhaps I'm just being cautious for no reason. You are probably right. I could adjust dev if the first one was botched, but I realize it wouldn't make up for a bad exposure. Just thinking maybe I...

I have "The Sink II" and it has been fine. Had an issue with the drain, but it wasn't the sink's fault.

This is probably more akin to what I actually do. Meter, shoot, repeat...move on.
I'd like to be a little more precise about it, but given my skill level this is probably more appropriate. I...

Right. So, 2 boxes and the negs go in in identical order. I just have to write down the subject for each neg and the number. Its for a couple of reasons. One would be that the exposure sucked and I...

Lenny - that may well be the best answer, I hadn't really thought about that. Not sure why, but I guess that's why I asked! I know its going to suck to manage all of the negs, but when your flying...

Yes, 4x5, but I'm talking possibly a couple of miles to hike. Not positive at this point.
But, even if I tote in 12 holders (very doable), I've still got to be organized when I unload. Other...

That would get pretty heavy!

Honestly unsure what forum this best went in, so Mods, feel free to move.

How do you keep track of sheet film in the field? Let say you take a primary and a backup of each shot. You could have 2...

Surprisingly, no one had posted this one. I have B&W, but haven't done anything with it. This is my first time trying to figure out movements...and well missed the light a bit.

Funny, I've been searching and searching here trying to decide if I should try something new for an upcoming trip. I have always used Tri-x/HC-110. I'm considering trying tmax. I may get a small...

I use a 1228 with a Z1 head for my Zone VI. Seems ok, if a little shorter than I'd like.

I suppose I'll just take out the second screw. Just curious for other ideas.

Anyone who is using the RRS plate they list for wood fields. It has 2 screws. Great idea, but...am I expected to drill a hole into the bottom of my nice wood camera? I realize I could, perhaps sink...

I've never seen such a thing! We just had the typical "A" shaped bike racks where you lock your front tire.

My folks were there last week. You weren't by chance part of a group thing were you?

Wow, how did I miss that snake under my feet? Thanks Dave!

Ok, so after all the helpful pointers on my ballhead query...I come to lenses. I'm in need of a 90ish. Rather than making myself unwelcome by asking about every lens I find, is there a resource...

I only need the single pan. Frankly, yes, its the QR lever that I really want. As I don't have one of the heads in front of me I really can't say, but I see no way they shouldn't be tigher than the...

If it weren't for the cash, this would be easy. Making the wiser choice and going to the bigger head kind of puts the RRS out as a choice, even though its my preference. I'm very interested in the...

Thanks Rich. Yeah, I did reinstall the hook when I removed the column. I have a Lowepro backpack, so I just need to get something to attach it to the hook.

David - I am a tad worried about the weight issue. I can't really afford to buy everything new for one trip tho, so I figure I'll just be careful. If I really end up doing more of this, perhaps I'd...

And now to confuse myself even more, I see Arca-Swiss has the Z1 with the bicycle wheel lever as well.

Eric, no problem. I'm new to the forum, so I'm guessing that I missed the thread where you submit the invoice for test gear? :-)
The Acratech, I just don't know. I stared at the pictures for awhile,...

Rich - The question is, 10 or 20? Clearly the 20 would, but will the 10 support a 6lb camera plus lens, plus film? I want to save money, but I don't want to cheap out. Know what I mean?

I appreciate all the opinions. For me, the obvious problem is I can't touch any of them. Sure I can order and return, but that's a hassle. To be honest, I like the RRS looks the best. At this price...

Well, I know I want the 55, but would the 40 be ok? I mean, when you look at price, I can get the bigger Kirk for the price of the 40. That might be the thing to do, I just like the way the RRS seems...

I *use* to be able to get Selenium toner, and all the basic chemicals from Richmond Camera on Patterson, but that seems to have mostly dried up as well. It is too bad.

So, I think I want a ball head. I've read all the threads here I could find. All I would like to me sure of is that any of the mid-weight type (Markins M10, RRS BH40, Kirk BH3) will be ok with my...

I have a poloroid back, but I didn't realize the film costs what it does!
Thanks for the welcome. I kind of want to take my Mamiya7 on the trip, but I just don't know about any more weight. I...

I live in Richmond and haven't graced a local store in so long its hard to call. Adams might be of interest, they've been there since the Civil War, never know what you'll find. The downtown (Broad...

Hello all. Been lurking for a couple of weeks, seems like a pretty nice place to visit.
I've been photographing for most of my life, off and on, but not professionally. I've been doing darkroom most...
