Illustrated intro to LF photography - an interesting blog

Post by Thingy » Mon Jun 15, 2009 3:12 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

I have recently spotted an interesting blog (not quite sure what a blog is though :oops: ) illustrating the equipment needed for LF photography and its use in the field. I think it is a very good, illustrated introduction to using an LF camera, and the author, Ben Anderson, discusses different formats and camera movements too. If anyone visiting this website is interested in what equipment is needed and how a LF camera is used in the field, I think this is an excellent introduction.

Ben is a regular on another forum I frequent. A really nice guy and an excellent photographer. What amazes me still is that he went straight from MF to 10x8!

Hey, I'm glad you found the post about large format useful, there're some things that probably need to be revisited now I've been doing this a bit longer but otherwise it wasn't such a bad fist at an intro.
