Help, I've got a very nice Sekonic L-778 Dual Spot Meter that suddenly quit working. Nothing shows up LCD panel at all. Just looks like it is turned off. Yes... I have changed the batteries;...
I am a Large Format shooter and I shot this window in 5x8 and in digital. I like this one a lot, but unfortunately it is the digital version that looks the best in this case. Just thought I would...
I don't have a tray here at work, but I can tell you that an 8x20 negative has plenty of room at the bottom of the tray. That's the size I process and they work great.
Just a suggestion for those who are using oversized 16x20 trays for 8x20 or 7x17 film developing... I just found 11x22" trays that work perfectly. They're 2 1/2" deep and grooved along the bottom...

Do you know if I can use Toyo or Canham boards on my Chamonix 5x8 that takes Arca Swiss 110mm boards? Are they all interchangable?

Lenny - good luck in your search for the ultimate 8x10 backpack. I suggest that you take a look at the f64 pack. It is designed for the 8x10 (holds a Deardorff and 4 lenses + a meter and 4 holders...
I have a Deardorff 8x10 and would like to add a Nikkor 120mm SW to my arsenal. Coverage seems to be adequate, but it looks like I will need to use a recessed lensboard. Anyone have any experience...
I am the happy new owner of a Deardorff 8x10 and am looking for a wide lens. I've read thru many of the forums about the G-Claron 210mm f/9 and have heard nothing but good things. But, I also am...
