    Hidey-ho from the Hawaiian Islands

    Hey all,

    Most of my photography has been in the small format arena, first with 35mm and now with a dSLR. its fun, but somehow unsatisfying. My transition to Digital has worsened that feeling.

    So it is with great pride that I pulled out my family's 4x5 and with great joy decided to put it to work! Thing is: I have no idea what I am doing. In fact, I really dont know what I have, equipment wise.

    Anyway, looking forward to lots of fun photography talk!

    Welcome aboard! What island are you on? I used to live in Wahiawa on Oahu. Good luck and I look forward to seeing your work from the islands!

    Welcome to group therepy! I always recommend a visit to the local library when starting out...a little study can save alot of frustration! I'm partial to Adam's "Camera and Lens" (actually to his whole 5-book technical series) for a good simple explanation of view camera use, adjustment, lenses, etc.
