Interior photograph

A recent shot taken on Velvia 50 film, 5x4 Horsmeman LS and Nikon 125mm lens. Had to work with available light, hence the burned out window detail.

Using the Schneider 75mm f5.6 MC Super Angulon

I'm using this borrowed lens on an Horseman LS 5x4. I shot a couple of sheets of 5x4 Velvia 50 this morning. Got the transparencies processed up the road at The Vault Imaging Lab.

many thanks for your reply Emmannuel. the rubber strap will be useful to remember. i did remove the rear lens, i was being too cautious because it is a borrowed lens. i think because it has not been removed for a long time it was just the initial extra force required. i've put it onto a recessed sin...

Taking 75mm schneider lens off linhof board

Any advice welcome.
Thanks

Best to consider what you want to photograph first, and base your choice of camera on that. there are a lot of deals on ebay with bodies and lenses, modern and vintage, metal and wood, view and field.... i had no real advice when i started to collect bits and pieces of equipment, so i ended up with ...

Duty/tax on lenses, film from USA, Europe, other...

I was wondering what kind of tax/duty they slap on used equipment bought overseas.
Or on new film.
