Not a 'soft focus' lens . . . per se. But, the DOF, @ 1.9 is VERY thin. Dan Fromm had one a long time ago. I think there may be a few others floating about - maybe 50 worldwide? Dan? Anyhow, check...

Hello,

what kind of price are you looking for? I'm interested.

I can't recommend Dodge/Chrome (in DC) highly enough. They run E-6 and C-41 (and B&W too) 35mm to 8x10 (and IF you shoot 11x14 they WILL run that too), their machines are CLEAN, their...

Recent work from a Fashion editorial.
Camera: Razzle 110B
Lens: Schneider Symar 150/5.6

Film: Kodak 160 N/C 4x5
Handheld.
Light(s): natural light only.

Currently I have a Schneider 90mm/5.6 SA for my Technika. I'm happy enough with that, and I have a 58mm Schnieder XL too; so I'm looking at an 'in between' F.L.

Considering a few, wondering if...

It'll cover 5x7 completely and is a nice normal/wide lens on that format, and the look is beautiful. It vignettes significantly on 8x10, however I shot some film with my Kodak KMV recently...

You CAN set the rangefinder to work, however as Frank says-it can be tricky up close. Take a look at a friend of mine's work with the Aero/Speed combo: http://ingado.com/other.shtml, most shot...

Hello Kevin, et al.

You're correct about David Burnett using an Aero to great effect. We've chatted via email about other glass, I know for a fact he's not using a Pentac, too long and not quite...

Hi Scott

A couple of pertinent points:

A- you NEVER 'sell' your images as some others on here have stated (it may be only semantics, but words DO matter), you 'license' usage.

B- APA & ASMP...

Nice shot. I don't blame you for not wanting to get too close, with a list price of over $400K and dealers selling for probably $600K +, that's a scary proposition!

If you're on a Mac get mac.com (aka .Mac) and then download a program called filechute (you can find it on the .mac site for 'popular programs') it's designed to work with .mac. You simply...

Shooting with strobe, unless you're in a room with fairly strong ambient light, 100 ASA film won't register that light at over 1/60 @ 5.6ish, and usually if you want that aperture you're...

Hi William et. al,

Thought I'd chime in too.

Having moved from SF/Marin (paradise) to DC (definitively NOT paradise) a few years ago and having spent a LOT of time in Seattle in both winter and...

You're in good hands, I'm very confident Bill Moretz will take care of you.

Here's a shot done in a fairly dim bar late one night in Eastern Oregon. 'Last Call' Exposure: 1 sec. @ 1.9.

Hi Jason

I may have a few more of my kids that David shot, I'll need to look around my HD to find them-it'll be a bit before I can post.

Hi Gene

Beautiful shot! Pardon my ignorance but what is 'butterfly lighting'? Are you lighting through a scrim or a net and hence the term?

Thanks

I've had Bill Moretz at Pro Camera in Charlottesville, VA work on countless shutters for me, in addition to all sorts of other esoterica.

A very interesting thread to say the least. Thought I'd throw a few out there, although they're not Petzval lenses, however they do have an interesting 'visual signature' none the...
