Hi Julian,

I am tempted by the 23A but would sensibly like to buy the 0.9 hard grad please, assuming no scatches etc.

If you want to PM me your details I will pay, either by bank transfer or paypal or however you want ASAP.

Cheers

Hi Julian,

What "assorted Lee filters" do you have? Any yellow/orange for black and white film?

Thanks

Re: First scanned 4x5 image

Hi Martin, Thanks for the reply. I agree it is a real delight seeing the slides on a light table. At the end of the day,though, I want to be able to print and for me that's done digitially. I see what you mean about being cold....quite a blue tone in the shadows. I suppose that is why people tend to...

First scanned 4x5 image

Hello Everyone, My first scanned image - taken in a local wood on a dull December day. I know it's far from a masterpiece..should have given more breathing space and the plane of focus/depth of field isn't quite right such that the top of the head is out of focus, but I'm happy that I'm getting ther...

Re: Exposure or scanning question

Hi Tristan, Thanks for replying. No, I don't have my own scanner....I'm new to all this and not going to invest in a scanner and all that learning until I am convinced that large format is the way for me to go. I really just wanted to see how the negs turned out. I'm happy with my slides. I also fea...

Exposure or scanning question

Hi Folks, The subject could be in two forums, so thought I'd post here. I am new to large format photography. I am using a pentax digital spotmeter to meter and am fairly happy with reading tones and using the meter. I am using both slide and negative films. With slide film I can view on a light-tab...

Re: Developing Labs

And received them back from Peak after only 5 days and that's with using their FREEPOST service (i.e 2nd class)! Amazingly quick...thought it would be weeks. I am even more surprised....exposures seem good (even 16 second one counted in my head with velvia 50), focus is good and I like them! OK, nev...

Re: Damp and condensation

Thanks everyone.

I reckon a snorkel is out of the question!!!

I should try to see if I can somehow contort the focusing cloth so that my nose is out of it. Certainly was frustrating.

Damp and condensation

Hi Folks, Finally got round to using my new Chamonix 045N-2 at the weekend and took my first large format images. It was a damp (mist, fog then heavy rain) day but not especially cold. I am not a particularly heavy person or heavy breather, but my god I spent so much time wiping condensation off the...
