Something I hobbled together....

Hello Hugo,
Given how light this camera is, I can get away with a pretty light carbon-fiber tripod.
Teak is a lovely wood to work with. As is rosewood, which I plan to use for my next camera build.
A few more of village life:

Shot this the other day at a local ship festival.... my scanner is in need of calibration.... too much red saturation.
Snapped this pic the other day. Velvia 100 at f/16, 1/60s. Handheld.
Lens still needs some shimming...but plenty of DOF.

Some very good information here. All of which I'll take under advisement when I start the design of my next 4x5.
Sorry, but I respectfully disagree with everything you stated.
Your commentary would most certainly put an end to journalism in all its forms.....and anyone demanding my property does so at their...
I guess with a freezer chock-full of Acros-100, I hadn't considered alternatives.
What exactly are the objections to capturing subjects unawares given that we're constantly being monitored?
I like your design choices. After a few field shoots with my camera, I'm leaning towards another build focused on a wider angle lens. I had hoped that my DIY would be a good choice for street...
I took this shot the other day....On tripod, Acros 100, Dev-D76. 120mm, f/32
The pic appears sharp corner-to-corner. The lens also seems to be perfectly parallel to the film plane.
Can't find...
The viewfinder is made by Voigtlander.
The camera is fixed at infinity. The rangefinder is used to confirm near-field which can be as close as 4-meters depending on f-stop.
It's currently set-up at infinity. Depending on the f-stop, near field is as close as 4-meters.
Took this shot two weeks ago when we were surrounded by forest fires....fortunately we received some heavy rains recently that cleared things up.

I use my DIY tubes for the occasional sheet or when I need to push/pull. Otherwise I use my MOD54. I too experienced scratches with my home-made tubes until I sanded the interior. Nice and smooth...
I've been trying to order a screen. After a 1-hour phone chat and follow-up e-mail (at Bills request) nothing, nada, not a word.
I'm sure his screens are superb, but his business practice needs...
I've been playing with PhotoLine (64-bit version) for the last 2-weeks. Very capable software and all tools are functional with 16-bit files (unlike PE). The only weakness that I found is the...
Interesting!
BTW, I've also experienced uneven development with 'tubes' and at times, horrible scratching.
That's odd. Did you install the film with the emulsion side facing in?
The manufacturer suggests that uneven development could be the result of insufficient agitation.
I just used my MOD54 for the first time. Even development, no scratches. A bit of a chore to load the film, but like most things in life, it gets easier with practice. It does use a lot of...
I just ordered a new Ebony 45SU. My wife is going to kill me!
I took delivery of a Lee IR filter on Friday afternoon. I noticed it had a small piece of contamination in the lower right corner.
I gently tried to gently scrape it off with my finger. No luck....

There's a teflon gasket between the J250 head and the tripod platform mounting surface that allows the head to pan quite smoothly.

Lucky day walking about with my camera. Light and angle were just right to capture this confusing photo

Yup, 1 negative per tube.
Took this test shot this morning (Ilford-Delta 100). Developed it upon my return home (Kodak D76 chemistry). Scanned on my Epson V750 with no post-scanning alterations. Tube seems to be working...
The only advantage, and it's pretty specific to my situation, is that I don't have a darkroom. I have to load film in a small closet which I share with my wardrobe. So, I prefer to keep the...
I think I may try to use a rod guard and see if I can build a light trap into the cap. Plenty of depth to accommodate the required disks. It then comes down to suitable adhesives.
I wonder if they're translucent and need to be coated to keep the light out.
I have no idea where to procure welding rod tubes, without the rods? Plus, rod tubes do not lend themelves well to light traps.
I had the same problem. So in the end, I made my own threaded cap. It's a modified coupling that I glued a disk into and sealed with a bead of silicone. However if you're in the states, Grainger...
