    Re: Arca Swiss Misura

    Yes I have used one. An interesting design but lacks the versatility of the F-Line 4x5 or F-Field for most users imho.

    Is there something in particular you would like to know about it?

    Re: Provia 100F and Velvia 50

    I'll second Drew and Kiwi's comments regarding Velvia 50. I find that Provia does give you a touch more range (-2.5/+2.5), slightly more than the current Etkachrome 100 too.

  18. Re: Alternative Center Filters for Rodenstock 75/4.5 Grandagon N?

    You might want to consider a Lee slip-on filter holder which would fit over the centre filter rather than into the front thread, much less risk of vignetting.

  21. Re: What small lightweight lens for 4x5 backpacking?

  22. Re: Which of my 5 LF lenses are worth keeping or worth upgrading?
