Friends, I managed to purchase a 045-F1 a while ago (I hope I got the numbers right - it is the first model with assymetric tilt). Now, strange as it may sound, it took me a couple of weeks to find enough time to take it out to the "field" and try it.
Now, coming from different LF cameras (besides some Sinars, an 8x10 Tachihara and a half plate toyo) I found this kind of camera quite tricky to work with. All those knobs which sort of let everything loose... Yeah, freezing temperature didn't help either...
So, my question is to you, seasoned chamonix users, what are your tricks, how to make life with the camera easier / the setup quicker, to get the full potential from this lovely thing?
Thank you
