Re: Hello from London!

Long time no see mate! Glad to hear you're well :) Hello Woodsy! It has been some time indeed! The Scotland road trip put the idea in my head of shooting large format and I eventually got round to it :) I see you're doing the same! Are you still in touch with any of the other guys who went on that ...

Re: Who is regularly shooting 10x8 Black and White film?

I'm shooting 8x10. Mostly TMax 400, and have a box of 50 sheets winging its way over from the US at the moment to keep me in 8x10 for the foreseeable future - although I have a stash of Foma 400 too.

LF camera repairs?

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend anyone who can do repairs/CLA on large format cameras? I've got a Toyo 45AX which needs a little looking at. Preferably somewhere in London but happy to send the camera off to anyone who comes recommended!

Hello from London!

Hi all, I've recently moved back to the UK 4 weeks ago after living in Australia and NZ for the past 5 years. I started shooting 4x5 in NZ so have around 4 years under my belt now and started shooting 8x10 about 6 months ago. I mostly capture images of things that are immediately around me so that c...
