Hi all

Curious if anyone has tried to use the Wandrd Prvke bag for their LF setup. I am trying to find bag for my 4x5 setup.... This seems to be very modular and customizable, but interested if...

That right Tim, I got mine from Ivan very quickly. Thanks for pointing me that direction!

I thought it was an easy question. Most of the advice given on this forum for beginners (myself included) was that it was easier to start with black and white and make your mistakes there, if for no...

Everyone suggests starting with black and white film to learn with LF cameras since its cheaper and easier to process, but I wanted to hear when you switched to color (if you switched to color). Was...

I think a wiki would be great (particularly as a new user), but I'd rather have pictures added to more of the articles on the home page. Trying to read and learn about things like the effect of...

I went today to the National Gallery of Art to see this exhibit. It was well worth the trip - amazing the things these guys came up with and how good and bad some of their "fakes" are. I was...

So after plenty more reading on the variety of cameras, I am leaning towards a Chamonix. It seems that is the camera most often recommended to newbies like myself and they look to be a fantastic...

Hi All,

Thanks again for the great responses. I have been bookmarking the film links you guys sent and am very appreciative. The place in Silver Spring should do the ticket nicely and great to...

Thanks all for the comments. I have actually been lurking here and reading the articles on the root pages for several days - along with picking up a copy of Ansel Adams' three books.

I've also...

Thanks for those links, those are great resources. Out of curiosity... why so much distrust of eBay for camera sales? There is one auction I've been eyeing that actually looks pretty decent,...
