It's confession time...
During my brief time as a LF camera user, I've made the following mistakes...
- Taken the dark slide out before closing the lens
- Loading film in the lolder the wrong way around. Very frustrating when I'd spent ages preflashing the film and stuff to get the image I wanted
- Placing my shadows on zone VII instead of Zone III
- forgetting to reset the camera's movements
- watching the image jump out of focus because I hadn't locked the front standard when I opened the camera up.
I wonder how many more mistakes are out there just waiting to trip me up...
This doesn't include the unmitigated disaster casued by attempts to use a Paterson Orbital print processor to develop my first set of negs.
