Hi, all!
My name is Norm and I'm a photographer in Los Angeles. I actually don't own a large format camera or even a medium format one; I'm shooting 35mm. I'm going through the photography program at Santa Monica College and am currently enrolled in Photo 37, which is Advanced Black & White. We're learning the Zone System, using it to photograph our assignments, processing our film accordingly, and printing in the darkroom.
Like I mentioned up front, I'm shooting 35mm. I'd like to graduate up to medium format in the nearish future and have my eyes on a Hasselblad. My reasons for joining this forum dedicated to large format are purely selfish: I was hoping to peruse the sub-forum for sales since I need an easel for my class, but now that I've read the FAQ I know I won't be able to access that particular sub-forum for another 30 days I also hope to lurk and learn more specifically about printing since anything I learn here will be an advantage I can use to earn an "A" in Photo 37!
Thanks a ton for reading. Some day I'll be a master like some of you folks are, but for now I'm content to watch and learn
