    I have always maintained that all LF photographers are a bit crazy.

    This one a bit more than most!

    Now, THAT'S dedication to getting the ultra-LF image... and I'll not complain about the weight of an 8x10 again!

    Cheers

    Hasn't an IMAX crew been up there already? That's got to be more stuff to carry than a 12x20".

    Yup, but it looks like the photographer still lugs his own camera and pod!

    A couple things stand out...

    1) The white gloves...too cool!

    2) Carrying the camera on the pod...I don't even do that with my tiny 4x5 if I am in a once-in-a-lifetime situation.

    The question is I'm not sure that I can even carry myself to that kind of height.

    In the Himalayas, you hire Sherpa or Balti people, so although it sounds impressive, it's actually less demanding than working in ... Chamonix.
