Joined a while ago - then lurked about reading the fourm, thought I might
as well introduce myself.
I got my first camera (35mm) back in grade school, really didn't use it until
High School (mid 60's). Someone at the school saw me with the camera
and the next thing I knew I was using the "Photo Club's" Speed Graphic
to shoot the schools track team, had some fun, got some pictures in the
yearbook.
Moved on from school - no more Speed Graphic, acquired a succession of
35mm hardware - sold a succession of 35mm hardware (kinda sounds like
life). Photography came and left and then repeated the process.
Fast forward 20 years or so - discovered digital - acquired a succession of
digital hardware - sold a succession of digital hardware. Really didn't have
much fun with digital - it has been hard to wrap my brain arround it - I
still think like a film photohrapher.
Fast forward to 4 months ago - stumbled upon LF again. Thought about it some,
now I waiting for a Calumet Monorail 4x5 to be delivered that I found on eBay.
When I get this camera I'll take it apart, clean it, and put it back together and
see if I can wrap my brain around the 4x5 film format.
Regards to all
Stan G.
