*I am posting four cabinet cards that are new to the photostream and one that I am bringing to the top. I am calling them "Arts & Letters". The group includes cards related to photography, sculpture, painting, music, and books. Since this is one of my favorite cabinet cards related to photography I decided to bring it to the top of my stream as part of the group.
This cabinet card shows a mustached man with a folding camera in a studio setting. My impression is that he brought his prized, and perhaps new, camera and tripod to the studio to be recorded.
I will continue to upload selections of our photographs of photographers with cameras. Please check back in a few days. Until then you can see more of our photographs of photographers at:
I took a picture of the 4x5 negative and inverted it. this is from a film negative, please ignore the EXIF, it was instead of a scanner.
This was a Darlot Petzval 5 1/2" f/3 that came out of a Magic Lantern Projector and placed on a Wisner Technical Field Camera.
Blog Post with More Pictures Missing the rear standard locking knob, but otherwise in good condition. This will make a wonderful portrait camera and I'll also get a 4x5 reducing back on it for landscape, street stuff. The bellows are not original, but they are much more functional than what the original red bellows would probably be. The lens is a Wollensak Versar lens with a non-working shutter. I'm going to get a modern (1970s-ish) Schneider Symmar 300mm lens as a replacement.
The great thing about this camera is that is has the front and rear extension rails and a sliding tripod block.

For all of you who still don't know, I've a blog about cameras, and camera history, and camera porn and all things camera.
This issue: the Lomography Belair, Vladimir Putin and how two Austrian students never went to the Czech Republic and discovered the LC but found their way to the highest personalities of the Soviet Un... oooops, the New Russia.

Zeiss Distagon 15 mm f/2.8 on Cambo ActusMini view camera with Sony A7II (f/2.8 1/4 sec ISO 400)
Dieses Objectiv hat eine feste Sonnenblende, die das Bild vignettiert durch Bewegungen der technischen Kamera. Doch erreicht das Schiften einen angenehmeren Blickwinkel. (Siehe hierzu im Gegensatz das voherige Photo)
Zeiss Distagon 15mm f/2.8 on Cambo ActusMini viewcamera with Sony A7II (f/2.8 1/4sec ISO 400)
This lens has a fixed suncap which causes vignetting by the movements of the technical camera. But shifting is much more successful than without.
We are in the process of photographing much of our collection for the book that will accompany an exhibition in the fall.
This group is of three German china souvenir pin dishes of the type often called "Pink Pigs" although it includes a white Teddy bear and a devil with a view camera. There is also a small cream and gold knock off of unknown manufacture marked "Souvenir of Baltimore, Md."
And so begins the 4x5 journey.
The main reason I got the Shen-Hao 4x5 was to use it to shoot along the creeks where I live. I am sure i will find more uses as I get more comfortable using large format.
This is a scan of my first negative. I didn't even scan this in really high rez but when I pulled the file up in photoshop to see if there was any dust I needed to address, I was blow away at the detail throughout the negative.
The file was 40 MB and I didn't even scan in a very detailed mode, that's a lot of info in one negative !!!!
The day was foggy, drizzly and slightly windy so I picked a pretty tough day to take my first shot but I have to say, the results came out way better than I expected. Actually, I am just happy I loaded the film correctly.

I recently acquired this gem from a friend's neighbor - lucky to be in the right place at the right time I guess. It was all intact but quite filthy when I got it. I cleaned it up and had to glue a couple pieces of loose trim on it, but it's now in clean working condition! This "Ideal" 10"x12" field camera was manufactured by Rochester Optical Company during the mid-1890s. It came with a Carl Zeiss Jena Protarlinse VII lens, and included 4 10x12 glass plate holders. My plan is to shoot 8x10 paper negs by attaching RC paper to 10x12 glass or plexi.

On a side note, I'd like to mention that I've recently learned that I have been selected to be the next large format staff photographer for the Heritage Documentation Programs (National Parks Service); HABS/HAER/HALS. This is an unbelievable opportunity and truly, a dream come true.
All the images I make for the Heritage Documentation Prograpms (National Parks Service) will be done on the 4x5, 5x7, and 8x10 formats and will be on display for you to enjoy and download on the Library of Congress website (www.nps.gov/hdp/coll.htm). I hope you will all take full advantage of this unbelievable national resource and use these images to educate those around you about the architectural, engineering, and natural history surrounding the United States of America.
I'd also like to thank everyone who has viewed my photos through the years (Filckr member since 2009). You've all been unbelievable in helping me edit and refine my vision and I can't say thank you enough.
I look forward to seeing many more of your images and discussing your individual photographic technique and approach in the years to come.
In 1976 we created a large exhibition of vintage stereo views of Maryland pared with Wheatstone viewers with color prints of the same locations in the 1970s. We adapted a 5X7 view camera with a new lens board holding the lens assembly from a Kodak folding stereo camera and a septum. Jack was focusing the camera at a group picnic and put his hat on the top of the camera while he was under the dark cloth. Someone took this picture but did not sign the print. The bellows were a bit chancy so we always wrapped them in a dark cloth. A fold under the lens board makes a perfect smile.
Thanks to the unknown photographer for this fun remembrance of the day.

Originally named "Sarnia Tunnel" to separate the station from the waterfront station, was completed in 1891 to serve the new St Clair Tunnel. The station, designed by Joseph Hobson, in the Gothic Revival style reflects many similar stations that Hobson designed for both Grand Trunk and Great Western. Completed in red pressed brick, with limestone lintels and buff brick accents, the station has a high peak hip roof with wide eves and decorative brackets. The interior featured several waiting rooms with hardwood floors, wainscoting, and superb lighting and heating. A second floor houses the telegraph operator and station master's office to help control traffic in the nearby yard. The station took over all passenger services in 1900 at the closure of the waterfront station and the station received a paint job in the early 20th Century. Canadian National would give a flat grey paint job in the 1960s before cutting passenger services in 1971. Thanks to the efforts of local historical societies, the station received a historical designation in 1975 and prior to reopening for VIA service in 1986 the station's exterior received a full restoration to the original brick. Further repairs to the roof and masonry took place in 2015 and today the station continues to service two daily trains to Toronto.

This is a Rodenstock 180 mm lens in a Copal shutter mounted in a Wista lens board. In other words, it's a roughly "normal" lens for my 4X5 view camera.

Taken on the Burnside Bridge in Portland, Oregon, with the famous "Made in Oregon" sign in the background.
The Deardorff I use was made in 1939. It isn't a museum piece. It's heavy, and bulky. I have to be very careful not to break the ground glass while carting it around. Folks stop and ask, "Do they still make film for that?" while I'm using it. That's the question I was asked while setting up for this shot. What inspires me to continue using bulky, old camera with weighty optics is, quite simply, magic. I am always amazed by what film can capture, especially while using tiny apertures. I want as little technology between the shutter and the film as possible. I want to control the exposure. I want to control the focus. I don't want a fancy camera that makes perfect shots every time. I want to make mistakes. I've gotten some great images from mistakes.
Camera: Deardorff V8 with 8x10 back.
Lens: 12" Kodak Ektar
Film: Ilford HP5+ Developed in Kodak HC-110.

Long before Milton's downtown had restaurants, shops, bars, and other commercial ventures. It was the heart of a backwater rural community, industry was no stranger. Take my favourite Thai place in town, it began life as a shoe factory then a knitting mill before becoming a commercial block.

Salamander. Shot on a rail view camera outfitted with pinhole (I think...also did a lensed version). Lit with Tungsten. Salamander is plastic - I had to weight his head with lead pellets to keep the little bugger in place. Stuff at the bottom of the container is egg whites and honey. I sprinkled baking powder all over everything in the stead of dust. Used some retractable diffusion gizmo to blur edges during printing (I just had to use it on something!). Print split-toned in cool-mixed thiourea.
