From a series about the different departments in the College of Arts and Humanities at San Jose State University. All images started as paper negatives taken in my 8x10. They were scanned and colored in photoshop.

the gallen optics China 120mm f2.8 large format lens. It was a rehouse from an instrumental optical lens which hard to know the original supplier and technical data. It is 4 group 6 element double gauss design and covering more than 4X5 at wide open, with insane sharpness on 4X5 film at f2.8. I rebuilt the housing with aluminum and mounted it on COPAL 3s shutter. Acutally the original modification which built with 3D printing had been tested for more than half year. We were shocked by the performance and now made it into metal.

There were still some lens available and if you have interest, let‘s discuss !

if you look long enough, all thing will be revealed to you.

From my first batch of 4x5 negs. Gonna need a better scanner... my HP document scanner doesn't seem to have enough DR to get the cloud details. Also the sharpness of the scan is so low that I need to rescale from 1200dpi to 600dpi and apply some unsharp masking to get a nice picture. (I can clearly see the bricks on the building on the neg with my 10x loupe!)

large format shooting @ nanjing road, shanghai

shoot by a very big 323mm f2.45 lens on 8X10 format, which equals to 45mm f0.33 on 135 format. Get ultra thin depth of view. The background was fantastic!

Space for the film holder/ground glass.

To hold the film back in place I use a length of elastic cord held in place with a couple of eye screws and bicycle spoke elbows.
