+1 to Drew's use of Vuescan and the cumbersome connection of his Coolscan 9000 to his Mac. I use the same set-up to get nice scans from my Coolscan 9000 into my iMac running OS Big Sur version...
To the OP: I didn't see anyone above here refer you to this review resource by Kerry Thalmann on "modern" LF lenses, that I have found helpful toward making decisions on what goes into my kit back...
Bob, So after using my MT IV for the last few years (but never with any of the 3 cams it came with), your explanation makes some sense to me. However, I confess I don’t recall the Owner's Manual...
Michael, In regard to editing digital images of B&W film scans for printing later by inkjet or from (inkjet printed) digital negatives, others in this thread have recommended that you consider...
If, when you go to close up the MT camera at the end of your various steps to get the focusing beds aligned, your camera does not click nicely and hold shut when you fold it into the clamshell shape,...
Michael R, Montreal is can't be that far from East Topsham, Vermont, where Cone Edition Press is located; and where they offer their seminars to help people learn various aspects of using their...
To the OP: 'Not trying to be smart here, but keep in mind (if you are not metric system-oriented) there are 25.4mm to an inch; so your 210mm lens will require about 8.25 inches distance between the...

+1 for what Bob said. I have a nice 45S with the standard and bag bellows, and changing between the two bellows (once you have the camera unfolded and set-up on the tripod) could not be simpler,...
Re RRS tripod, I use a Versa 23 (2 Series 3-segmented legs) version and it is adequate to support my MT. RRS used to make a specific plate for the MT, but now you'll need to use one of their more...
After reading through this entire (interesting) thread, I’m left with one seemingly simple reaction. After one has taken all the time, effort and expense with LF gear of choice to set-up and make an...
Greg Waterman, Thank you for sharing your experiences and perspectives about your process which ends with inkjet prints. I, too, have no children, and so no thought that anyone will want my...
Michael, I am basically at the same stage as you, but lucky enough (now that I'm a happy retiree) to have the budget and time for the learning curve to give the Piezography route a try. I...
+1 from my various experiences with Omer at CatLabs over the years, and with the Heiland LED VC light source and Splitgrade Analyzer system I purchased several months ago for my LPL 4500 enlarger. ...
Prior to this year I had gone on two month-long road trips with my LF and MF and digital cameras, to all corners of the US (and several NPs), over each of the previous 5 years since I retired from my...

You might contact Bob Watkins at Precision Camera Works (now in the Napa area) to find out if he does CLA and repairs on shutters and lenses. I think he does, and if so I'm sure you'd be satisfied...

Praus Productions Inc. in Rochester NY. C-41 4x5films are $3.25 per sheet, and their quality and service are excellent. They have many fans on this Forum...
If you have an iPhone, consider using the stopwatch function. I don't know if you might even be able to make it show red numerals on the black background (which I'd think would be perfect for you...
I have a TK 45S, and was talking about it with Austin Calhoon at Laflex Camera Service, who specializes in Linhof cameras and other gear (and was suggested to you as a repair service option above). ...
Like Daniel at Post #6, I use a 360mm APO-Ronar f9 (though in a Copal 3 shutter) with my Master Technika or my MT 2000 without any problems for landscape photography where the subject is usually at...

I had one good TXP 4x5in film of a composition from Joshua Tree NP on one of my road trips that I really liked, but the film had a tiny clear white spot (which prints black) in an important place in...

I imagine the HD Majestic is VERY sturdy and stabile indeed. If I recall correctly, I paid about $40 for shipping of the Linhof HD Pro tripod by UPS Ground to me in Wisconsin (from Pennsylvania). ...
To the OP: I had a bag bellows made for my TK45S by Custom Bellows in the UK, that they mounted into an extra set of the 45S plastic bellows frames that the previous owner of my camera threw in...
LFLarry, I acquired my MT 2000 only in January of this year, in excellent condition, and it has become my new favorite as I probably have taken 95+% of my 4x5 images with my MT Classic over the...
Me too, I think. Thank you.
I have used my Master Technikas (Classic and now also a 2000) for several years and have encountered this problem with my Lee filter system NDGs a handful of times when using a lens shorter than 180...
This color image was made on May 1st with my iPhone 11, while the two B&W images were made on May 7th with my Linhof Master Technika 4x5. This large, old and spreading oak tree is in Caledonia,...
