Pretty much made every mistake possible with the Intrepid 8x10 and Nikkor 360mm - was using expired Arista Ultra 100, and instead of overexposing a stop, underexposed for a stop; using rotary developing, dropped the tank when using the Xtol component (developing using Rodina/Xtol), did an extra wash etc. And still, was able to get images, very surprisingly so. I guess chaos can create luck after all, or the resiliency of film is pretty amazing. Thanks to all those flickeranians who continue to inspire me!
Waiting at a scene for the right moment. This mobile phone does not show the very small bright sun obscured by fog as the surrounding area is blown out in this picture, but hopefully won’t be by the sheet of film. Great to be back out with the Horseman 45FA and a 150mm lens.
Back when smoking was still good for you.

Here are just a few thoughts on how to make a fixed focus camera using a Cambo 8x10 rear and front standard. The idea is to have a lightweight version of the camera (which is normally a monorail camera better suited for studio use) that is set to a fixed focus and a fixed rise for taking pictured of buildings from ground level. The two proposed methods are very different, the first is a rickety spider structure and the second is a rigid space frame. The standard 'bag bellow' would be suitable for the light blocking but a custom bellow could be made that has no chance of folding in and getting in the field of view.
I have recently purchased spare Cambo parts amd will try this out if I get a wider shorter lens that will cover with the extra rise.
This particular scenery was found in Marin County, California. A quiet location for my first try-out with the BetterLight panorama adapter. This image is the right portion of the panorama.

We stopped by a live auction on some fairgrounds on impulse on Friday and won this beauty of a camera plus accessories for $55 Canadian. It works and it even comes with a 120 film back with a half-exposed roll of film in it, among other things. Since the rangefinder is on the side, it means the camera was manufactured before 1955. The camera was once owned by the Ontario Fire Marshall. Anyway, we thought $55 for it it was a pretty good deal. Now that we've checked the prices on eBay, we know for sure that it was a great deal.

From Sunday's Live Draw event. Was doing instant oilgraph portraits and these were the negs that came from them. I mounted and painted the polaroids and either sold them outright or put them out for auction.
Most of these were portraits of the patrons at the event.
Haven't shot 4x5 in years. It's like shooting with a cow, but I began to get my stride soon. I wasn't going to add any of these actually since it's not my usual thing and a bit more static that I am used to, but I figured why not.
a revolution of large format SLR system - the smartflex designed and manufactured in China, with modern design and material which has the same weight as 120 SLRs but supporting 4X5, 612, 3x4 etc. altogether with a modern designed Smartnon 7in. bright lens, extremely sharp and good color. The new era of large format portrait is coming!
