Oct 1987, I wish I could scan some of my shots with this camera, but my Cannon 8800 will not scan 4x5 negs or chromes. But if I tick it I can scan half, but that's only good for a couple shots.
Esta cámara para placas o película de 3¼" × 4¼" (8x10,5 cm) fue desarrollada por el escultor inglés Frederick H. Sanderson. Su interés por la arquitectura le llevó a diseñar unas cámaras que, a través de los fuelles y de la manipulación de una serie de tirantes y tornillos, se posibilitasen movimientos horizontales, verticales y de basculación, consiguiendo así diferentes distancias relativas de los paneles del objetivo y de la película para obtener fotografías de obras arquitectónicas sin que se produjesen distorsiones significativas.
Esa solución que patentó en 1895 como "Swing Front" (Frontal Basculante), hizo que este tipo de cámaras superaran limitaciones de otras muy similares.

The lens was part of a Polaroid MP-4+ system for the photodocumentation of electrophoresis gels. I cut the lens board that came with the system to match my camera. The MP-4+ system was in a pool of equipment from a lab of our research department that had to move to another building. As nobody else was interested in the lab's old analogue photographic gear, I "volunteered" to rescue it from the waste container.

Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church in Stouchsburg near Womelsdorf, Pennsylvania. This church always catches my eye when I drive by because of the unusual shade of stonework which sets it apart from the normal red brick that most of the other area churches have. The congregation was founded in 1743.

I'm pretty happy with this glassware shot, but I wish I could have blocked out the reflections of the studio in the glass. Unfortunately I didn't have access to the materials to do that. It was used for my mandatory glassware shot for my final portfolio.
This is shot on film with a 4x5 view camera.
This piece was part of my Final Portfolio at Hallmark Institute of Photography.

Sinar P / Schneider Symmar 150mm / Agfa MCP paper negative
Yes, I'm here once more. Lomography did it again: they cheated me into buying one of their cameras. Well, in this case, a kit. I't the Ikea philosophy: you buy it unassembled and you have to put a little work into it. The image you see through its viewfinder is absolutely abysmal, being, officially the darkest image I've seen on a grond glass, but well, at f11, what do you want. Which brings me to the most disappointing point of the camera. F11? Man, c'mon, gimme 5.6, at least, because at f11 you need to be an eagle to focus through the groundglass. Don't take me bad, I kinda like it, even if I don't think it will see much use, as I have Leicas I still haven't tried with film...

After months of research, note taking, image comparisons and lots of admiration of other's results, I decided to finally pull the trigger on shooting some X-Ray film in my 4x5 large format view camera.
I bought a 100 sheet box of Fuji HR-T 30 green medium speed X-Ray film and a 12" rotary paper cutter from Amazon and started cutting each 8x10" sheet down to four 4x5" sheets. It's a process that definitely takes some practice to get the final dimensions correct while cutting but since the film is an orthochromatic film and much less sensitive to red light, you can cut the film, load and unload holders and develop all under an 11 watt Kodak Junior red safe bulb placed about four feet from the work surface. I experienced no film fogging from the bulb. The film is a double sided emulsion and susceptible to scratching in tray development if you are not absolutely careful. I normally use the Taco Method for my 4x5 development but that wasn't going to fly with double sided X-Ray film. I chose to use a Mod54 six sheet spindle insert for a three reel Patterson tank for my developing. I found no scratches on the film at all after development. I had laid a thin white poster board on top of the rotary paper cutter surface and taped it down to prevent scratching while cutting the film down to size. Earlier, I had also tried a 12" guillotine style paper cutter with terrible results so I switched to the rotary cutter and had no problems after that.
The photo was shot with a Calumet 45nx with a Fujinon-W 210 F5.6 lens in a Copal B shutter. 1/4 second @ F16 with the film rated at ISO 100(ish). It was outside in our backyard next to a small waterfall and pond we have and it was drizzling at the time.
Development was with Rodinal in a 1:100 dilution for six minutes at 20 degrees Celsius with very careful and slow inversions for the first twenty seconds and ten seconds of inversions each minute after that. Tap water stop bath, Ilford Rapid Fixer, five minute tap water rinse followed by two minutes in Photo-Flo bath, Hung up to dry for five hours and scanned in two passes on an Epson V600 then merged the pieces together using Photoshop's PhotoMerge function.
Final cost per 4x5 sheet... about 11 cents. Still lots of room for improvement. The experimenting rolls on...
This past weekend I returned to Great Falls Park, just outside of Washington DC in Virginia, which is a favorite park of mine, with lots of varied trails and things to see.

One of like 5 pictures I have taken in my life that I am proud of, especially the print of it.
[Panorama stitched together from 2 negatives.]
The horizontal rail rods are framed , so the whole thing is more rigid .
Same step was taken for the vertical ones , passing from 2nd to 3d prototype . ( See this set for more fotos and info www.flickr.com/photos/pavlosfotosathgr/sets/7215762410808...][)

Kind of new. The negatives are thin. Still trying to figure out what happened. I shot a shoot right before this and I light metered again and it was still the same. Developed them together, just difference is I fired and cocked the shutter for that shoot for this one Stephen did. Maybe he accidently changed my aperture. :( Oh well. I can always reshoot.
I'll drink to the truth. I'll drink to the true meaning behind all my self portraits as of late. The taste of alcohol doesn't replace the several "I Miss You's" I repeat daily in my head. I keep thinking I can erase you but that only lasts so long before I realize you're irreplaceable. I'd like to think someone could make me feel that way again and maybe I'm just naive. Maybe someone will one day, just not today. Every little bit of wine on my tongue doesn't cover up this pain. I wish it would. Cause God knows I don't want to feel so alone anymore. I've gotten use to this empty apartment, this empty bed, this empty floor... But just because I have gotten use to it doesn't mean I can move on. I know you think differently, because I have filled your place with different men. I'm sorry you have to know my faults because you fall out of love with me the more you know. I'm trying my hardest to change and not share my bed. That bed belonged to us, it shall remain for us. Maybe, I pretend they're you, but they're opposite, everything you were not. I'm starting to think more the more I drink, I'm starting to feel more. The feelings I haven't felt since the day you packed your bags and left me. I've kept so much hidden inside, from everyone. I miss you. I love you. I'm falling apart a little more without you. Of course, I'm sadden by your happiness that you have seemed to gain without me. I just wonder if you think about me, you wonder about me, sometimes if you miss me. I started living this faulty life I never thought I'd go back to. I'd liked my life with you but I know things change, even if we don't intend them to. I just wish with this change, I didn't have to lose you. You were my best friend, my boyfriend, my fiance, my one and only, so I'd like to think. I know I hurt you with that final fight. We said a lot of things we didn't mean, did a lot of hurtful things, I still can't put the pieces back together from that night, I'd like to think one day I'll remember. My drinking hasn't gotten better, it's still the same, steady but deadly. Now I lie in bed with a bottle of wine just to feel numb inside. I try to my hardest to feel better. I try. I try. I try. But without your body next to mine, who am I? I am me. Just not the same loving person I was with you. I'm kind of cruel and heartless. Broken. I have put everything I've got in to my future. Photography. But that's nothing without you. Yeah, I'll go somewhere. Yeah, I'll make it. I'll follow my dreams but they'll never be complete. I'm sure I'll love again, I'm sure I'll make love again, I'm sure I'll one day be engaged again, but if it's not you, it wouldn't be everything I ever wanted. I wont be complete. In parallel worlds we're getting married in 22 days. Husband and wife. Maybe, we'll cross paths some day and say hello, maybe we'll be widowed or divorced, we'll finally finish that fairy tale we always thought we had. I just wish somewhere someday we can learn to both learn to forgive and forget. Maybe, I'll have my happy ending. But in the meantime, I want you to know, I love you, I miss you, I'm changing, I'm sorry. I'll drink to this
Hope you can be with your Valentine today!
We collect valentines that feature several of our interests. Today I am posting four more of our valentine's with cameras. Three are girl photographers which is one of the sub-sets I especially like. This one if a boy photographer I scanned for Jack to post on facebook.

This was an assignment for my editorial class. Adam broke his ankle skating a few weeks ago. Well kind of. Hard to explain. I'm missing a film holder from this shoot... I'm wondering if I left it at the place because I can't find it anywhere and well I only ended up with 2 shots and a few shots on my 35mm and my medium format.

For those of you who dont know yet, I have a blog where I vent my lunatic ravings about cameras and camera history. This issue: the Ukrainian connection; the truth behind black Kievs and the Rolling Stones.
Give it a try: it's for free, like the best things in life:
Linhof Super-Technika IV 6x9 probarbly with a 114/4,5 Voigtländer Heliar.
Efke OP12 6,5x9 sheet-film developed in a stand process (about 1 h) in Rodinal 1:50 (used not new un-used developer!). About 6-12 asa. Scanning was performed as a wet-scan.
A portal in Jabłonna Park, Mazovia, Poland. Fomapan 200 film developed with Kodak T-max kit. Taken by vintage 9x12cm (pre-WWII) camera with Ibsor shuter and Anastigmat 135/4.5 lens Ennatar by Enna Werk Muenchen. Negative scanned by Epson V600.
The Meopta Largor used here , is a little longer than the " standard " 105 mm lens for 6X9 format . ALTHOUGH thanks to it's large circle of coverage ( you see it's a wide for 13X18 ) it supports decentering
movements of 4,5 cm + (half frame for the case ) , while PC lenses usually do 8 mm , that is less than 1/4 of the frame on 36X24 .
The lens originally belonged to Tom Abrahamsson (T&T and Mr B for flickers ) then donated to Goran Basaric ( gorbas for the flickers ) and finally donated to me .
The machine is not yet ready to shoot fotos for lack of a roll film back pack , but I am searching on the e-bay for one . More info here bluescargo.gr/geometry/
