4x5 portraits on the fly.... Now there is a statement! How do you figure you are going to shoot lots of portraits? Do you have several grafmatic holders? Or are you going to carry around a couple dozen double-dark slides?

I won't be shooting lots of the same subject.
Probably the next step up from how I shoot at the moment.
I usually have the Leica M2 (previously a Contax-II), and the Rolleicord III. I shoot a lot of photo's with the M2, and save the Rollei for the more important shots that I want. So I may get 60-90 35mm shots, and 20-odd on 120. So I'm guessing maybe limit to 10 shots on LF if I'm using DDS.
I'm not yet sure about grafmatic holders, but its an idea.
I'm more worried about making sure I have enough opportunities to take the portraits. I'm running out of models/friends that live local and will pose for me!
I guess also this means I'll need to shell out for grafmatics, and all the film I'll burn up, so a yankee tank too!
Maybe if you didn't get so excited when they modeled for you...Originally Posted by Ash
I can't help it....
Well, click my blog for photo's of Portobello Road in London (Saturday, 35mm shots) - the girls are stunning, but unfortunately I stared too long and most of them dodged my camera!!!
....That, and most of the girls in this town are my ex's
All both of them.....That, and most of the girls in this town are my ex's
Both? lol Randy
On my myspace I have sasha, amy b, laura, abi... that's 4 at least.. besides shots of other ex's like MJ, Vicki etc aren't quite family-friendly.
The money arrived safe and sound! Dean tells me work should start on my new camera this weekend, so I'll be looking in the post box every day for the next 8 weeks no doubt
Ash - you've really piqued my curiosity!! I can feel your excitement bouncing down the web. Please enlighten me...what is this you bought?? Some handholdable 4x5??
Macy, google RazzleDog
Remember you sent me the following email on 9th April re. buying my Zone VI timer -
"I'll get back to you once I have some cash if that's ok? I definitely want it though!"
Nice to see you're a man of your word!
ENJOY
