Ultra Large Format Color, Examples? [Non-polaroid]

[thomashobbs]

I was reading in a few posts that there have been orders of color negative film in Ultra Large Format [ULF] sizes from Kodak.

Does anyone have any exmples of pictures shot in ULF sizes on color film?

I have only ever seen 20x24 polaroids. I've never seen a color negative picture using anything large than an 8x10 camera. I love the detail, color and shallow depth of field of 8x10 color shots. I could imagine these effects would be even greater in larger sizes, so I'm curious if anyone has anything to share.

Cheers!

Tedd Soost may have done some 12x20 color. Can't find it on his website, though, and it's difficult to navigate:

Oren,

Thank you for posting this link. I Was unaware of Mr. Corey's work. I love it and his comments.

I recently bought a 5x12 Korona and ordered film through the Ilford Special Order program. I thought my film purchase was extravagant but I really have to admire a man who is willing to commit $10,000 to buy film for a format he really wasn't positive he would like. I am also impressed by his commitment to work in that format with only one lens. One camera, One film, One lens - a lifetime of amazing work.

Some good, lots of BS included.

I think they are very good, but from a Zen mediative stand point the art always lacks or overly suggests, what the mind sees.

Ok, that's just plain inspiring.

If it diverges from the truth, is it art, really? In a lot of cases its about pulling wool over a viewer's eyes. For others, its about revelations. Hard to generalize.
