This is the Cedar Creek Grist Mill near Woodland, Washington. It still functions as a mill on occasion, which is extremely awesome.
I finally bought a scanner capable of scanning 8x10 film, and this is the first sheet of film I scanned on it. It does a decent job, but I may want to calibrate it eventually.

I took this picture from the Franz Lake Wildlife Refuge, Washington, in the Winter of 2003. I think a wider lens would have been helpful, but I did not have one at the time. I was still fairly new to medium format, and was still learning composition.
Camera: Hasselblad 500CM
Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar
Film: Kodak TMax 100

Aquesta càmera tipus "tailboard" o "reisekamera" com en diuen en alemany, de format 13x18 cm, és d'un model força estandard i molt practic. Per això la vaig escollir. Però a sobre té la particularitat de conservar la plaqueta del fabricant i a sobre un objectiu a joc també amb el nom del fabricant. Això la fa especialment atractiva.
Aquesta reisekamera, doncs, fou fabricada i venguda per Konrad G. Seitz a Nuremberg, a finals del s. XIX o principis del XX. Per raons que detallaré, crec que data d'entorn el 1895. Encara fa més gracia que el negoci fotografic de la familia Seitz encara existeix avui en dia, encara al costat de la St. Lorenzkirche: Photo Seitz GmbH.
L'objectiu és força interesant i representatiu del seu moment. Tot ell lacat en negre i amb detalls cromats, s'allunya ja de la estètica de llauto que va dominar els objectius fotografics del s. XIX. Tot i portar el mateix nom del fabricant i venedor de la càmera, dubto molt que també fos fabricat a Nuremberg. El text del objectiu, parcialment en lletra gòtica, diu:
"Konrad G. Seitz, Nürnberg,
Universal Aplanat, Extra Rapid, 16981".
La clau aquí, es que si busqueu "Universal Aplanat Extra Rapid", veureu que hi ha molts objectius identics, amb el mateix lacat negre i text similar PERO amb noms i ciutats diferents. La majoria d'Alemania i Austria, però també de França i Catalunya i tot. De fet, vaig trobar un article sobre dos objectius com aquest però indicant dues botigues de Barcelona. Gracies a aquests noms podien saber que es tractava de objectius fabricats just a finals del s. XIX (quan estan documentats aquells negocis barcelonins). Per això crec que aquest objectiu data del entorn del 1895. Tant pel nº de serie anterior als mencionats objectius com per tenir diafragma amb "stops" senzillament numerats 1-2-3-4 etc, i no f8-f11-f16-f22...
No sé on es fabricaren aquests Universal Aplanats, però tot apunta a Alemania, tant per la distribució com per l'us de lletra gòtica en el text. Deurien ser fets per encarrec d'aquells que els venien amb el seu nom inscrit, i obviament això sembla indicar optiques més aviat barates. Si un objectiu Zeiss, Vöigtlander o Dallmeyer, calia pagar més.
Entre els que he trobat per internet, n'hi ha que diuen "Rectilineaire Extra Rapide" en comptes de "Universal Aplanat", però vol dir bàsicament el mateix i en el mateix tipus de lletra. Els nº de serie van des del 9093 fins al 19920. I especialment interessant, els noms dels "distribuidors" inclouen: Stolze&Stuck (Hamburg), Felix Neumann, Adler&Cie., Josef Wahaus (tots Viena), Alb Glöck (Karlsruhe), Gaertig&Thieman (Görlitz), Falz&Werner (Leipzig), Soennecker&Co., Optischer Anstalt, Otto Wernhard (tots de Munic), Gertrude Junghans (Dresden), M. Grabner (Graz), A. Scheller (Münster), Hess&Sattler (Wiesbaden), Bernard Moock (Berlin), W. Kengott (Paris), i Vda. de F. Rius i Hijos de A. Busquets y Duran (tots dos de Barcelona).
Aquesta càmera la vaig comprar perque anava en conjunt amb 3 portaplaques de tipus "bookform", perfectament utilitzables per a fer plaques de col·lodió. I funciona molt bé!

==============================================
This large format tailboard camera or "reisekamera" as they say in German, format 13x18 cm, is a fairly standard early XX Century model and very practical, as in folding position the ground glass is protected. That’s why I chose her. But on top of that it has the particularity of keeping the manufacturer's plate and even a matching lens also with the manufacturer's name. This makes her especially attractive.
This reisekamera, therefore, was manufactured and sold by Konrad G. Seitz in Nuremberg, at the end of the XIX or early XX Centuries. For reasons I will detail, I think it dates back to c.1895. It is even more interesting to know that the photographic business of the Seitz family still exists today, next to the St. Lorenzkirche, in Nuremberg: it's Photo Seitz GmbH, in Pfannenschmiedsgasse.
The lens is quite interesting and representative of his time. All lacquered in black and with chrome details, it is already moving away from the brass aesthetic that dominated the photographic lenses of the XIX Century. Despite bearing the same name as the camera manufacturer and seller, I highly doubt it was also made in Nuremberg. The text of the objective, partially in gothic letter, says:
"Konrad G. Seitz, Nürnberg,
Universal Aplanat, Extra Rapid, 16981 ".
The key here, is that if you search for "Universal Aplanat Extra Rapid", you will see that there are many identical lenses, with the same black lacquer and similarly styled text BUT with different names and cities. Some also have Waterhouse stops, others, diaphragms. Most indicate cities of Germany and Austria, but also France and even Barcelona, in Catalonia. In fact, I found an article (in Catalan) about two lenses like this but named after two retailers in Barcelona, long gone ("A. Busquets y Duran", and "Vda. de F. Rus"). Thanks to these names they could know that these were lenses manufactured just at the end of the s. XIX (when those Barcelona businesses are documented). That is why I think this lens dates from around 1895, just a few years before the others. Both for the serial number lower than those lenses and for having a diaphragm with "stops" simply numbered 1-2-3-4 etc, and not f8-f11-f16-f22. ..
I don't know where these lacquered Universal Aplanats were made, but everything points to Germany, both for the distribution and the use of Gothic lettering in the text. They probably were made by order by those who sold them with their name inscribed on them, and obviously this seems to indicate rather cheap optics.
Among the ones I've found on the internet, some say "Rectilineaire Extra Rapide" instead of "Universal Aplanat", but it means basically the same and in the same font. Serial numbers range from 9.093 to 19.920. And especially interestingly, the names of the "distributors" include: Stolze&Stuck (Hamburg), Felix Neumann, Adler&Cie., Josef Wahaus (all Vienna), Alb Glöck (Karlsruhe), Gaertig&Thieman (Görlitz), Falz&Werner (Leipzig), Soennecker&Co., Optischer Anstalt, Otto Wernhard (all from Munich), Gertrude Junghans (Dresden), M. Grabner (Graz), A. Scheller (Münster), Hess&Sattler (Wiesbaden), Bernard Moock ( Berlin), W. Kengott (Paris), and Vda. de F. Rius, Hijos de A. Busquets y Duran (both of Barcelona). Somebody should do a historical research about this.
I bought this camera because it came with 3 "bookform" type plate holders, perfectly usable for making collodion plates. And it works great!

This is from last week's Columbia Gorge Trip. I finally had a day off, and was dying to get out and do some photography. Gaia and I drove out to the Mosier area, which is 6 miles past Hood River, and visited Rowena Crest. I saw the light on this hillside on the way back down the hill, so I stopped to take a picture. I used my ancient Cook Anastigmat: an uncoated brass lens that I picked up in 2011. It's an excellent lens to use when a modern lens would give too much contrast.
Camera: Super Speed Graphic 4x5.
Lens: 8" Cooke Anastigmat.
Film: Kodak T-Max 100 developed in PMK Pyro.

I completed building a point and shoot large format camera from spare view camera parts. So, yes..., it's a Franken-camera, but with it I am able to shoot 4x5, Instant film (Fuji FP 100b and 3000b), and 6x12 cm panoramic on 120 roll film. The lens is a 75mm Nikkor, which is about the same angle of view as a 24mm on 35mm.
I built this to take with me on an upcoming trip to California where I really don't want to lug the Linhof around with me. I also built this camera to take with me and shoot in the urban environment when a traditional view camera would prove challenging.
The camera is most;y built from spare Cambo view camera parts, which are easy to find used, the lens cone is a flipped Toyo recessed board, the helicid was ordered from China, however, any hellcoid (pentax 67 works really well) that is large enough to accommodate the lens can be used. The view finder is a 21mm Zeiss finder. The total cost excluding the finder and lens was about $200.00, which is about a third of the cost of a Cambo Wide, which this camera resembles.
I bought a new camera today. It needs a little work. The lens brass has a ding on the front, and it's missing a piece of hardware on the front standard to secure the lens plate. The good thing is the leather bellows is light tight, and it has no termite damage. A little love and it will be making images again. What should I name her?

La Gundlach Korona View és una càmera nord-americana de gran format, força lleugera i de gran qualitat.
Aquesta càmera en concret és la Korona View de segón model, fabricada entre 1909 i els anys 30; en tot cas aquesta data d'abans del 1926, ja que la companyia canvià de nom. És de format 5x7 polzades i la vaig comprar amb un objectiu Plaubel Anticomar f4.2 / 210mm montat en un gran obturador Compound; junt amb la càmera anaven tres portaplaques dobles amb el nom del antic propietari, Dr. H. B. Wright. Tot plegat sembla indicar que fou venguda als Estats Units als anys 20 o 30.
És molt curiós perquè la vaig comprar amb la idea exprés de fer-la servir per a fer plaques de col·lodió, i un dels tres portaplaques estava precisament adaptat per a col·lodió (i marcat com a tal).
Per cert, només em vaig adonar a posteriori que havia comprat una càmera que porta per nom KORONA just aquest any 2020.

==================
The Gundlach Korona View is a large format American camera, quite light and built in high quality materials.
This particular item is the 2nd. model Korona View, made between 1909 and the 1930s; but this one was made before changing the name of the company in 1926. It is a 5x7 format camera and I bought it with a Plaubel Anticomar f4.2 / 210mm lens mounted on a large Compound shutter; along with the camera were three double plate holders with the name of the former owner, Dr. H. B. Wright. All this seems to indicate that it was sold in the United States in the early 1920's.
It’s very curious because I bought it with the express idea of using it to make collodion wet plates, and one of the three plate holders was precisely adapted for collodion (and marked as such).
By the way, have you noted that I bought a camera named Korona precisely in this 2020? The year of what...?

Feeling forced by Flickr to start over again. Received an email there was a 'commercial link' to my website. I did remove this link and asked if they could reopen my account. Turned out this link was only the beginning and they wanted me to remove all 'nudity'. Even a Photograph whit a human in underwear is not 'safe' anymore. We are going in the wrong direction with this. And I decline to pay for an account so I can show nudity. I can say there is uncensored work on my website still and can not tell you where you can find my website.

The Dalles Dam has been a fovorite spot for me for almost a decade, and, now that I have moved away from Hood River back into the Portland area, I look back on being minutes away from The Dalles with not a small amount of nostalgia. I really loved living there. It was the 52 mile commute to Gresham every day that did me in. I needed to reclaim that time.
So, now, I am going through my reams of negatives to find some that may look good on other peoples’ walls. I like this one.

This is a rusted gate at the Fort Stevens jail, in Fort Stevens, Oregon. The landscapes were not very interesting that day, so we opted for the doorscapes. This is a film version of pictures I posted a couple of weeks ago.
I was testing out the repair on the Deardorff, which seems to have been a success. I haven't gotten it out in bright sunlight yet, but that will come once the smoke clears.
