Is that what they used to use in the old days before smartphones?

Luckily, when I was deciding to purchase the Schneider Kreuznach lens and centre filter that I mentioned in post #60, NiSi/B&H decided to sell that 112mm polariser for half price for 24 hours.
...
Example... There's nothing about this polariser that's unique to Nikon's Z 14-24mm f/2.8S lens, it's just that that lens is the market for it:

As I understand it, Nikon's Z 14-24mm f/2.8S is the very reason that a small number of manufacturers are currently making 112mm filters, although the lines are limited to ultraviolet, polariser and...
I started to standardise around 82mm because I needed to do it for video, but I think that 82mm is also a good size for large format photography. You're covered for most lenses and for ready...
I have the same 82mm filters with one possible difference. My yellow B+W is 022. I didn't know that B+W makes a 020, or is that a typo? My yellow-green Hoya is HMC X0.
Alan Klein has raised a different question, which Bernice quoted and was addressing.
In fact, all of the Lee adapter rings that I own are Lee products with the exception of one that I purchased from Filter Dude. He offers one that was not available from Lee resellers at the time. I...
Bob, I don't want to get into a debate about this, but I'm also not going to sit silent while you misrepresent what I said. Post #47 on my own purchases of Lee products, and how it handles support...
Lee is a UK company. I regularly spend time in the UK, indeed on the Isle of Wight which is a short distance from Lee's headquarters, and in the US, and have bought Lee products in both countries. A...
Alan, an additional comment on Lee adapter rings...
The U.S. price for a Lee 105mm adapter ring is a staggering $143. Filter Dude's 105mm ring is $25, and his copies (Lee does not have a patent on...
You live near New York City. Sounds like time to take your camera for a visit to B&H or Adorama. In addition to new product, their Used Departments may have all or most of the components, by Lee or...
I'd think twice about buying a Lee holder and filters for a single lens.
I also think you'll find it no more expensive, and probably less expensive, to purchase 105mm round filters second hand...

The alternative is a Lee150 holder, which is for 150mm square/rectangular filters, or an equivalent holder and adapter ring from another manufacturer. I've amended my post #35 to reflect this.
...
Lee Filters makes a 105mm adapter ring for its Lee100/Lee150 Systems. See screen capture. Some of its competitors also make a 105mm adapter. As far as I know, that's the largest adapter size...
Just want to express thanks to Bernice for the overviews in her posts #29 and #31.
Bob Salomon might know better, but I suspect that the market for square and rectangular filters has grown...
Hi Mario,
In your place, I would be considering the Lee100 System (or similar from another manufacturer) as well as the option of choosing a filter size that can be used with current and possible...
How the Joovy utility cart in the above post folds up:

This company also makes utility carts. The largest, with oversize rear wheels, is this one. Not cheap, but apparently it's sometimes sold at about a 25% discount:

The film with Hepburn and Charles Boyer, Break of Hearts, is on YouTube. During the war, it was adapted as a radio play, with an introduction by Cecile B. DeMille and starring Orson Welles and Rita...
Apparently sellers of Arca-Swiss cameras didn't get the memo that monorails sell for peanuts :)
Best bouillabaisse I've had in my life :)
Pretty good football club too, but I'm definitely partial to PSG. I won't rub in today's game :)

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who is pretty credible on Apple, published an article yesterday about Apple's internal testing of future M configurations: Apple Readies Several New Macs with Next-Generation...
No, your post #21 was simply ill-conceived. Your second sentence above states an obvious fact.
It should also be obvious from the first paragraph of my post - "That's a perspective, not...
Thanks, I'll be on the lookout for the video.
Different photographers arrange to take the same head and shoulders photograph of the same person in the same location over and over?
How do different street photographers do this? Do they hire...
As a matter of curiosity, do you know who the photographer was? What movie(s) the photos were for? Who's the actor with her in the photo that you included?
You'e essentially saying that one should regard the content of a photograph, when assessing it, as irrelevant. That's a perspective, not universally shared.
I have no interest in traditional...
I just had a look at his code. He's using Squarespace. Maybe try a different browser? On Safari, his site is working fine.

Olaf Sztaba, who wrote the PetaPixel article, is from Poland and emigrated to Canada in the late 1990s. I'm sure that he's well aware of man's influence on the landscape in Europe. He may have in...
I have an Arca-Swiss F-Line. My view of this is that Arca-Swiss either wants to sell me the 5x7 components for my camera or it doesn't. If the latter, I have a 5x7 Linhof Kardan Bi.
My 8x10 and 4x5 configurations are 171, and I'd be interested in adding 5x7, but not if it's only available with a front frame that's inconsistent with the rest of my camera.
Good to know about this. The map below shows where Longeuil is in relation to Montréal. The red line at the bottom is the Québec/New York State border.

There's a pinned thread at the top of the Resources sub-forum called Large Format Channels on YouTube. The channels are listed in post #1. A number of them make videos that are helpful for beginners.
My view of the Mac Studio/M1 Max after 12 days...
I think that the least expensive Mac Studio (US$2000) will be more than sufficient for processing photographs and most video for several years to...
That photograph is very encouraging. Thanks for the distance estimate. As I've said earlier in this thread, I'm not convinced that long lenses are necessary.
When I wrote yesterday's post, the...
