Actually, I'm inspired by moonlight. If it wasn't for that, I would have never looked up from chips and software.
Bill, have you thought about pursuing photographing war reenactments? I remember...

Hey, guys, I started the thread to discuss Robert Frank's statement and observations. If you're going to post in the thread, could you please keep it on topic? I have no interest in another Mobius...
I think there's a difference between "trashing" and upholding something that does have virtues.
Martin Scorsese's statement in regards to the recent deal made with Kodak (Entertainment Weekly)...
Peter, the roller assembly pulls out. It just clips in there. Reach in and pull out those little roller arms. Then gently pop out the rollers from the arms. Press the rollers back into the roller...
OK, here's my CPE2+ with the small drum:

I had to get help with this, myself. The Jobo CPE2+ can run the larger drum, but it's a bit of a strain on the machine.
From an interview in Vanity Fair, Robert Frank’s Unsentimental Journey, April 2008:
Quite provocative, eh? What value is there for the watcher, when all that is watched is equal?
For myself,...
The way to run the CPE2+ and the 2500 drum is take the extenders out completely, and just clip the rollers themselves to the roller block. Then it will fit snugly in the bottom, and there's no...
We'll miss you! But I wish you hadn't canceled your registration, because that means that nobody can search on your posts.
I've only ignored three people. Yes, the forum has its limits. ...
#1, It's hard to go wrong with anything you purchase in LF. It takes a really bad lens to screw up the image on LF film. The lenses are simpler to design than the smaller formats, so the image is...
Welcome, Charlie! All you need is a good camera and a good lens, and the will and perseverance to use them well! Beware the siren songs of extra lenses and larger formats, they'll doom your wallet...
Welcome, Perry! There's lots of info here about using digital back with view cameras, and some of the members have the adapters to do multiple shots using a small format camera on the rear of a...
It isn't that slow. You still need to develop it in the "dark" under a safelight. You'll also still need stop, as that paper won't stop developing immediately when you take it out of the bath.

One thing that I've found useful for removing adhesive is ... adhesive! Take some tape and press it down on the recalcitrant adhesive, and then lift up. You may need to do this a few times. I've...
I did this for another thread in the Lounge, on the eventual death of sheet film. This one was my second attempt. The film was taped on the inside of an 8x10 holder (learned lesson: curly side in...
From a Google search of the forum, in and around Atlanta: Jim Michael, buggz, JWebb, CameraMan65.
Yeah, with roll film. But not with sheet film.
Yes, I know that Delta 3200 doesn't come in 4x5 format. That's why there's roll film backs, or a person can tape the film into a holder.

Fastest current shutter: Copal 0 press shutter, 1/500th second.
Fastest shutter ever: Rapatronic camera
Stone, the Kodak Techpan development instructions you posted are for roll film. The instructions for sheet film describes the shuffle method, on the next page. "Use the special agitation procedure...
Here's something to consider:
Using fill-in-the-blank developer and either HP-5, Tri-X, or other "grainy" "fast" film, can you get grain larger than Ilford Delta 3200?
If you can't get larger...
Precisely my point, Drew, the allegory has to stand apart from a projected metaphor. People consistently project what they like onto something. IIRC, there was a scene with Ingrid Bergman, that at...
Do you think that Weston deliberately misstated himself, i.e., lied his butt off? That his thought process towards the peppers was, "hey, this looks like a nekked babe! Gotta make me sum pics! ...
What I found amusing about Pepper No. 30 is that it was just a pepper to Weston. He was just playing with his food. His own comment, in part, was, "It has no psychological attributes, no human...
Merriam-Webster, kitsch: "things ... that are of low quality and that many people find amusing and enjoyable"

My avatar is a crop from an 8x10 negative, and the crop is about 1/2 the size of a Minox frame. If you want film grain, then you have to make a significant enlargement to see it. You can use Ilford...
Interesting result from a Google search, Encyclopedia of nineteenth-century photography: A-I, index, Volume 1, page 27. Nice article on allegory in photography.
Allegory is a concept with two...

There's been a couple of questions that's bugging me. What is the optimum level of participant vs. the instruction?

Why not just crop? An inch off either side is no big deal.
Right, all of the Bogart images were Bogart, and I think that the three photographs referenced there were done in the same session, as the lighting positions don't seem to have changed.

People usually wind up bug-eyed and amazed when I'm out and about with my camera. Usually my 8x10 Cambo is mistaken for a movie camera. I don't know why, the lack of Mickey Mouse ears on it...
I had absolutely no idea there were professional archers needed in this day and age! Did you subcontract from Cupid or what? ;)
Welcome to the forum! Yes, we have a whole section here on paper...
Yes, museums are collecting landscapers!
Yeah, that's the problem with pretty much all of them. From looking at that photograph, I would never have guessed that she made paintings.
I just went to Paul Caponigro's website, and I didn't see a single photograph of a person there! I suppose that means he's never been able to do it, either.

The holder you need for what is commercially available is the Polaroid 405 or Fujifilm PA-145 holder. The only instant film currently produced is the Fujifilm FP100C. That's it. There is no other...
Polaroid 545: Polaroid sheet film, Kodak ReadyLoad, Fujifilm QuickLoad, and of course the very hopefully coming next year New55.

What lens, and what shutter?
The reason I ask is because this is one of those things in the, "it depends," category. Lenses that normally come without a shutter are called "barrel" lenses,...
