Lovely shot.
It's in Bundaberg, QLD. Was originally a bank, now a lawyers office.
A recent attempt to "vintageize" the look of a local building. It takes a long time but I'm liking the results so might make a project of this with the old buildings in my district.
Before...
Thanks guys.
A normal contact sheet would be positive, do you invert them?
Thanks Martin.
Yeah for dark images I've used a flashlight as well, works a treat. Dunno about leaving it in the shot though :D
I love the 6x12 format and while I lived on the road it was a way to continue using my 5x4 without needing facilities to process sheet film.

Looks good front to rear but soft top right, which implies to me that you had some swing in place as well.

5x4 Tachihara, 210mm Symmar-S
Thanks. I had one in a previous life, not very useful for general photography I found but would be great for this. I'll get one.
I have a Schneider Symmar-S, works a treat but so would any of the main contenders I think.
I forgot to ask, how do you fire the shutter? I see that one hand is suspiciously out of sight, one of those pneumatic shutter releases?
Thanks for the description, yeah a tricky shot to get everything acceptably sharp.
Even if it's feasible that sounds like a MASSIVE task, I'm not sure who would be willing to take on even a part of it.
Personally my focus ( :D ) is on doing my own projects and taking my own...
Nice shot, and I Love the tone colour.
Now that would have had some interesting movements. Or did you just tilt and stop down :D
I've been using Affinity for a year or so now and it's definitely a PS contender IMO.
But in all that time I've NEVER looked at the personas :D Go figure. I just have and there's some interesting...
Real nice.
How the heck do you get the focus right with e SP like this? Set up a stick or something in what you hope is the same distance as your eyes?
Are you shooting landscapes? If so I can think of no situation that requires both at the same time.
FWIW I always use back tilt, never front. It has the same effect re plane of focus but has two...
I always carry a change bag and so far I've just used that. I may buy a cloth soon, and if I do I won't get one with elastic that hugs the camera as I worry about that moving things. That said many...
It seems I was bang on.
The old receding fence line trick. That's Canal Rocks in Western Australia in the background.

Tachihara, 6x12 RFH, 90/4.5 Nikkor
Neat.
Have you got a link for that linear screw gadget?
Don't know, it's about 200 wide so 2500/200 = 12.5, maybe f12.5 ish.
I'll put my wildlife photographer hat on for this one.
Goanna having a drink, The Kimberley, Western Australia.

This is the lens

It's EIGHT INCHES across :D
Projects a 1m circle I'm told, 2500mm focal length so presumably that's at approx 2.5m back from the...
For colour:
Vuescan will do a pretty good conversion you just load in a pre-scanned image. BUT you have to buy the pro version to get that feature and I'm too tight to do that. I tried Filmlab as...
Nope, it's just a DIY program for my own use. You can have the VB6 code though if you like :D
I think it's brilliant. Hopefully the next model will do 5x4.
I'll have a look because I'd like to stick with PHP although I don't now if that's applicable to Docker or not. Trouble is I can't get WAMP to work on my current computer, maybe I need to get someone...
I have access to a 2500mm Boyer lens, the bloke wants to sell it but no matter how I word things the post gets knocked back on this forum.
That said I thought maybe I should just buy it myself as...
I have an engineering background but that said I tend not to run the numbers.
I baulked at buying yet another scanner so just tried DSLR scanning and I've been well happy with the results. I get...
Interesting. I love that so many people are designing and building new LF gear.
Probably one of the other options I tried that seemed to work.
I use a viewing frame and a Linhof Universal finder.
I spot a potential image just by eye, then frame it to see if it works.
However I started 50 years ago so can no longer comment on what...
Welcome Milspec. So have you bought a kit then?
That implies they are coming from a point and shoot or at least a transition camera. Would that be the case? I would think most people graduate to LF after many years working with SLR/DSLR cameras,...
