So good.
I love LF shots that kinda look like 35mm shots. This has a very Bresson look to it and it's on a LF! So cool.
Very nice!
Seems to work okay, haven't used these strobes in a while. Now to find a project.
Just got to remember. 1/50 or was it 1/25? And blue dot on lens. I have a bi-post to male and a female to...
What sucks now is that I won't be able to use this Acme outdoors with a fill. Bummer :( Man, I haven't used bulbs since I was 12 and using a 110 camera :)
I'm guessing the White (F) is about 5milliseconds and Blue is 25mm which won't sync with 1/100 or even 1/150 (on Acme shutters). I'm thinking either settings blue or white, it will work with 1/50...
Thanks Mark! I did more testing. At first I thought I had 1. bad developer, 2: shutter too high, so I had to make sure I did a few and make sure #1 was not a culprit.
Here's what happened, mind...
Okay nerds, I got a good one. On the side of the old Acme is a lever for the flash sync. I KNOW for sure my flash is working and I tested the same f/stop shutter combo on my digital camera. On the...
Cool, I used that plastic ballons inside Amazon shipments. But I like your foam thing.
NICE!!!
I worked as an assitant one time and we went to New Jersey to photograph on of them fancy 30 yard long printing presses (back in the 80's). They couldn't stop the run but we had a hard time...
Lovely shirt
You kinda look like ....

Good point! I buy old bikes (I'm a long time cyclist) and completely take it apart and restore them. I've seen a lot of "sketchy mechanics" and some have access to welding tools. Yikes. But once...
Totally agree! The price is right. Exactly what happened a few weeks ago with another one and owner said the rangefinder was correct. And by the time I got back to him, he had sold it already. ...
Oh, wrong one, this is the manual for Butkins

Thank you thank you!!! Yes will have a read of it today. Thank you! I found the link https://graflex.org/manuals/45-Pacemaker-Speed-and-Crown-Graphic.pdf
He did know enough when I asked him to verify the rangefinder with what he sees in the GG so at least he knew what that meant! I'm guessing with it a little off, and he doesn't use the rangefinder...
You provide very good advice Brian. Yes, it is local and "on the fence" about buying it. Haven't heard hemming-and-hawing in a while, that's a good one. I think only CRAZY people want to use...
Sorry, just looking at pics of the rail bed and just want to confirm. There are settings in front with foot markings, 6 - 8 - 10 all the way to infinity mark. So I turn the focus knob on the left,...
Also, thanks for the PDF link!!
Ahhhh, I was typing, and then did my "morning bitness after coffee" and didn't see this. So my earlier post before this was asking about infinity focus, and I think I guessed the answer and you...
Very good advice! Thank you. I'm not bad with mechanics, and yes, you are right, if the parts aren't there and no amount of fiddling witl fix it. Can you explain, I think I kinda know what this...
Thanks, I've been on graflex site but not much. Since I don't have one. But I have an opportunity to pick one up locally. He said "the finder is set for 8 feet, but the ground glass is sharp and...
Hi guys, wanting to try my hand on LF handheld but not with those fancy 3dprinted cone cameras. Was looking at graflex and lots of hard to follow instructions on Kalart side mounted rangefinders but...
ding ding ding!!! That's it!!! You have a fantastic memory. Now I remember it...Tucker. Yep.
Does anyone NOT REMEMBER the internet early days of "Plungercam?" Some guy with a hasselblad. I wish the website was still up. My love of cheap cameras and lenses come from working in and studios....
Sounds like one of them fancy Lomo cameras with a butchered Leica Summicron attached to it via hot glue, prayers, and hairpins. It'll be the next Insta/tiktok artist to go millionaire.
well...well....well.....what do we have here. :)
Very nice.
Very nice!
Thanks for a great explanation! So I think I should have put the gossen on +3. I think that was it. Thank you again!
Just testing out my old Gossen SBC reflective. I usually use a Sekonic studio metering but I'm practicing my reflective metering especially with white on white.

I just find it amazing that we can take basically the same camera, same lens, almost same chemistry, and do all the same things they did back when there were not airplanes, there was a civil war in...
Outstanding!
This is really good tip! Thanks. There is a real art shop about 30 minute drive from me, one of the few here, there are lots in Los Angeles but too far. I will look for that Kami. And kami tape,...
Aztek is literally 1.5 miles from my house
This is great info!!! So just acetate on top.
My last few weeks with the little buddy before he goes of to Harvard Law. Taken 08/2023 UCLA. Come back and help me with this darn ankle braclet 'yo! I'm counting on you.

Hello all, it is windier than Chicago politics right now in Southern California.
I do some wet scanning on my 35mm, 120 film on one of those holders that have a ANR glass.

Yikes, sounds highly technical for me. Ugh. I wanted to remove that step down filter so I can put it on my other Ilex #4 but it seems to be in there pretty good. It doesn't have a notch for a...

The inner black rings are step down rings to add a smaller diameter lens on it.
I checked the elements. They seem fine, 2...
