Hello everyone,
probably there are a ton of threads to this topic but I didnt find any via using the search function, so Im sorry for spaming...
I literally took my first LF shot with my new Chamonix F2 and made a photo of my living room.
I used the back standard to swing, so that I transformed the image, that the left of the image would be closer in my composition (because it was too far away and I did want to bring it closer).
What would be the rule of thumb to readjust focus after using the back swing?
Do I have to swing the front standard parallel to the back standard or vice versa? I king of ended up that way, so that I had the left and the right side of the image in focus (after checking it with the loupe)...but Im not sure if I did everyhting correct.
Also Im not quite sure what the difference between the back standard tilt with the (using the black knobs) and asymmetrical tilt (grey metal knobs) is. As far as I see it, the asymmetrical tilt allows tilting without the need to refocus, right?
I think learning by doing is the generel answer, but after doing a vew movements I kind of lost track of my steps and what I need to do next to get to a result where everything is in focus after applying the rear standard swing.
Thanks in advance!
