The New Pictorialism

Thanks, Mark. That lens is my Pinkham & Smith Visual Quality M.P. lens. It really is a wonder!

Most excellent! And I agree with Dan; the image Descending... at the blog's title page shows the atmospherics of the old lenses in a timeless and wonderful way..

Hi Kent,

It will work well with the sliding back, but I find that the full-frame sensor size is better for the bellows-style mounting without a sliding back, because it covers more area.

The APS size is actually better for the Camerafusion back, because the mirror box doesn't throw shadows like the full-frame D3 sometimes does at the edge of the 4x5 image area. I use the D3 in the DX crop mode often on the Camerafusion back, which avoids the shadow problem.

I have a Nikon D300 and have been considering doing something like this with an old Nikon macro bellows. Think it would work?
