Dear All,
I have never used a LF camera. I bought an unused Linhof Master Technika. The box says Jahre 50 as well. Not sure how old it is but it looks brand new. It came with a Rodenstock Apo *Sironar N 150. I have the sheet films and holders and changing bag. I have been thinking about learning large format so I had bought a Fuji quickload last year but yesterday I learned that Fuji does not make instant 4x5 films anymore but I ordered some instant Fuji B&Ws from ebay.
I ordered a used 120 film holder for Linhof (6x9) since I want to learn the basic movements and loading sheets films seems challenging. Can I shoot using the rangefinder or do I have to focus on the ground glass first?
I also learnt that Nikkor M 300 F9 is highly regarded. Can I use it on the Master Technika without the cams?
I have been shooting 35mm film rangefinders & SLRs, DSLRs and Medium Formats. Favorite films are Tri X and Portra.
Any suggestions/advice would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
