Dishonest? That is pretty good..
A sliding box camera would not work as it would require you to focus twice. It can be done, just another extra step in the process. Also, cannot be used for...
Thanks for the response, much appreciated! Yes, am aware of all that.. Am just trying to negate the need for a bellows. So like what he has done here but in a box I guess.
What lenses came in...
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated! Apologies, I was not clear enough...
I want to try something like what has been done here....
...
Am revisiting this thread from a little while back... :)
Am just wondering what lenses came in "rack and pinion" and/or helicoid focusing. Am trying to build a "compact" 810 camera and this part...
Thanks for all the suggestions, they have been of great help! :)
Thanks, much appreciated! That is what I was thinking, having a second standard that the lens would sit on... Tilt/Swing is going to be interesting... :)
Good One! That is actually a good idea, using a modified extra standard for support... :)
Awesome! Thanks for the answer, much appreciated!
What about some of the fast, older petzval type lenses out there... Those suckers look huge!?
If too big for your standard monorail cameras,...
Hmmm, not sure how I included that...
Am talking about the 810 G series..
Thanks! :)
Thanks for the replies, much appreciated!
Am not looking to add anything for support, just wondering how much weight the front standard can hold by itself? Would be looking in the normal to...
I apologise if this has been asked before but I did search and could not find an answer.
So I have the Toyo 810G and am just wondering how heavy a lens the front standard can support? I am...
Thanks, much appreciated!
:)
Thanks so much... :)
Is this something you did yourself or are you able to provide a link to somewhere? Thanks :)
Thanks for all the help and advice, much appreciated!
Will go ahead and see how much weight they can handle..
Overall, for the money, I am very impressed with the new Intrepid 810. I...
I agree, Kudos to Max for acknowledging the issue and offering to resolve it for customers affected.. :)
Pretty happy that this is resolved and I can reassure myself that I am not going nuts..
Hi,
I have just purchased my first 810, the new black Intrepid 810. Overall, it seems pretty good, am keen to start using it.
I have three lens that I am keen to use and am just wondering...
Thanks again for the response, much appreciated!
So, based on your advice regarding the textured side of the fresnel, it was placed correctly. I have the smooth side facing me (and this is how...
So, had a rummage around and was able to source a mini hex key. Have flipped the fresnel around and it seems it has been placed on backwards. Very hard to capture with my Iphone but there is...
Just looking at it again, i think the Intrepid logo is etched into the GG...
So not relevant in determining the placement of the fresnel..
Thanks to everybody for their response, much appreciated!
Have reached out to Intrepid, so will see what they say. So far, their customer service has been excellent, so hopefully they have some...
Thanks, appreciate the answer.. :)
Am not in front of the camera at the moment but don't think it is a coverage issue. If I move my head around, the bright hotspot moves around and I can see into...
Thanks for the reply..
It is an Industar 300mm 4.5. I think it just covers 8 x 10 @ infinity.
Hi, Hoping somebody with much more smarts than me can help me out here..
I just recently purchased the new 8 x 10 Intrepid and on first inspection, am fairly impressed. I have never owned an 8...
Thanks, yup it will do for the moment, especially considering what I paid for the whole setup...
Thanks for the suggestion! :)
As noted above, the clamp you offered to sell me is not for the Cambo SC.
Thanks for your help, much appreciated! I have since changed tripod heads and this seems to have largely fixed the problem... Still not the most stable but that could just be down to the large 8 x...
Hi,
Hope someone here can help me. I recently purchased a very beaten up Cambo 8 x 10 SC. I do not have access to it currently, so I have attached a photo from Ebay of the same model. The only...
Thanks, I have one of those so maybe do a rough version with it and then contact the other manufacturers later on to see if they will sell me one later down the track.. :)
Hello,
I am playing around with building a bit of a DIY 8 x 10 box camera and am wondering if I could possibly purchase the rear film holder/ground glass assembly new from one of the...
Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to reply, much appreciated! :)
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated! I have found an old Dallmeyer 2B in my partners Dad's camera collection and it has the little stick out knob thingy on it... Is that the "rack and pinion"...
Hi,
Just hoping that somebody has some insight into such lenses... Are they only Petzval lenses? What is the focusing range of such a system?
Thanks, look forward to any information...
My apologies, I should have been more clear.
I am part of a Facebook group called Digital Camera Obscura and it is basically all about taking a digital image of the projection that is created...
Sorry, you lost me on this.. How is this applicable to the question being asked? Thanks.
Thanks for the response, much appreciated! Yes, an additional amount of rear rise would also be acceptable..
Strange question I know but am just wondering what 8 x 10 field camera has the largest amount of front "fall"?
I assume that this is purely a physical constraint, given how far the lens board...
Thanks! We got there..... :)
So, have finally found some success with this issue! Big thanks to everyone who contributed, much appreciated!
So I ended up trying a 25mm x 25mm rail and this ended up working... :)
The...
