Pigeon Point Shoreline - Large Format Film
I brought along my large format camera when I went to shoot the annual lighting of the Fresnel light at Pigeon Point. However, with the amount of wind that was blowing I was afraid that any long exposures would be blurred beyond belief. So, I took a few shots during the day so that I could see what they would look like. I just uploaded this shot for a 16x20 print and will be picking it up later this afternoon from the lab. This will be the first attempt at printing from a scan made from my Toyo 45CF.
I reduced the image size to 250dpi as the original 1200dpi TIFF was 167Mb in size.
Camera: Toyo Field 45CF
Lens: Fujinon 90mm f/8.0 SW w/Seiko #0 Shutter
Exposure: 1/15 Second @f/22
Tripod: Benro A-169 w/B-0 Ball Head
Film: Fuji Velvia 100
Scanner: Epson V750-M Pro
Update: I picked up the print this evening and I was very pleased with the outcome. It was printed from the 1200dpi scan and the detail is amazing. Of course, this was the entire reason for getting a large format camera!
