Nice. Well done.
We sell a lot on ebay.
Buyers have two days to pay. Send an invoice.
After two days open an unpaid case.
Then you get to wait 4 days until you're allowed to close the case and get your...
If comparable to a Toyo 45.
The knobs on each side would lock down rise and fall of the front standard.
The silver "L" shaped lever would lock down front tilt.... from forward back to...
I like your negatives. Looks like you went to some trouble.
If I were new to 4x5, I'd start with some trays. I've never used the SP 445, but if you just test with some trays you've eliminated...
Let's be honest.
The vast majority of digital shooters would not be involved in photography at all if it wasn't for the instant gratification that digital offers.
Push a button and bingo...
Ha! Just watched it tonight.

That's really nice. I've been cropping your photograph on my tablet. Zoom in. Lose most of the dark to the left and the top.
Well done. Terrific composition.
Shoot two identical negatives. Develope one in a tray as a control.
You might want continous agitation for the first minute. Then 5 seconds every thirty seconds after.
The control will...
I can edit 500 mb+ files no problem.

The ground glass is what you see is what you get.
If your cutting off corners it should be apparent on the ground glass.

You'll learn way more trying things for yourself than asking open ended questions.
Just my experience.
I read through your question several times and I don't get it.
You're asking people to experience a camera For You which is absolutely impossible.
If you really had one specific question that...
You can save weight by limiting your kit to a camera and one lens. A tripod, a cable release, a meter, and a couple of filters.
Bingo.
I've been doing this a long time. I've found less is...
If this was your workshop experience I'd say, thanks for the warning.
Thanks. I think I liked it better then.
Well good luck. It looks like you're doing the Lord's work.
100g on Amazon for $89.00 or synthetic for $12.95.
Nice. I like your site too. I'll follow along.
I should clarify. I was referring to a changing bag, not a tent. I've never used a tent such as the Harrison for loading 4x5 film holders.
Paul,
I would second getting Ansel Adam's "The Negative".
It's a great place to start.
Paul,
Fixers are either Sodium or Ammonium based. With Sodium based you'll need a hypo clear. Or at least that's my understanding. You can get something like TF-4 from Photographers Formularly...
You got some advice about using a changing tent. If you're planning on loading holders in a changing tent don't. They are dust and lint nightmares.
If you are traveling bring along the means...
That is brilliant. Thanks.
+1 on the release paper.
What Ken posted and now you can stop.
So when you say "I need to carry 4 lenses" you're telling us you've never been on a hike before?
BTZS Tubes for Pyrocat.
I ordered his selective masking kit recently. After a number of days with no response I sent a follow-up email - What the hey?
Up pops Mr Ross with a reply. Turns out he'd been on a little trip...
B&H is selling outdoor gear. Need a tent?
They probably hired some big 4, 2, or 3 accounting/consulting firm to streamline/maximize their profit centers and shipping chemistry did not make the...
Some digital shooters seem awefully intolerant to the continued presence of film.
I suppose it's because of the digital shooters tendencies to spray and pray, the shallow Photoshop learning curve,...
In Ansels book The Print it shows a method where a black spot is scraped off the surface of the print with an exacto knife. Then the resulting "white spot" is spotted like any other white spot in...
I bought a pair of 2.75 at the drugstore for $12.95.
Though I still keep the Toyo hanging around my neck.
I'd drop the tent. One little pinhole in the top of it would illuminate your film beautifully.
Process film in darkroom and compare. If you don't have a darkroom seal off bathroom at night -...
For a long time I've used nothing but the Arista kits from Freestyle.

My thoughts exactly.
Keeds,
Nicely done.
Second the Ebony.
As a general rule Photoshop. And experiment, experiment, and experiment. I have found that failure teaches most. I am most familar with failure.
