Hello, to all who maybe a site member or visitor here. I was lucky to have found this site during the demise of the Fuji QL's. As my requests for updates on the subject went unanswered from Fuji at the time, at least the posts at this site were quite helpful and informative. The loss of the QL's still took place, however, by reading some of the updates here we were better informed at that time and could try our best to plan around the event. Thank you for that !

As a side note; I live in southern California, U.S.A., and shoot in the southwestern territory of the continent. I'm a long time user of transparency films going back to Kodachrome 25. I started as many have with a 35mm unit and moved to MF at least 15 years ago now. The move to LF was a bit more recent taking place about 5 to 7 years ago now. Although I will not part with the MF gear, I primarily shoot LF these days.

I look forward to visiting this site as often as possible and appreciate all of the information posted here as it always seems to be very current.

Welcome Trail Images, we have quite a few non doms on the forum and it's refreshing to have your perspective on the world of LF outside the UK

Thank you, Paul.
It is truly a pleasure to review the posts here and I learn up to date information all the time during my visits.......take care.

Hi Andrew, so far as gear goes in Large Format, it's always shy of at least "one more lens", don't ya know.
Here is the list that I typically haul in the backpack to as remote as I can get these days. After an ankle break years back I've had to trim the distances a bit, but never give up what I enjoy the most, that would be just getting out there and taking things in. Living here in the southwest part of the USA, that's a lot of taking things in too.

Wista DXIII Cherrywood 4x5
Schneider APO 90mm 5.6 - 120mm 5.6 - 150mm 5.6 - 210mm 5.6
Minolta Spotmeter F
"Old" Bogen 3221 Tripod with Bogen 488RCO Midi-ballhead
Lee 100mm wide angle filter holder
Hoya 77mm Circular Polarizer - Hoya 77mm 1B Warming - Moose 77mm C/P warming Filter.
Singh-Ray Grads - 2stop soft & hard - 3 stop soft & hard
Still using my Fuji QL loader to date. Once I'm out of the Velvia 50 QL's I'll start reloading my Fidelity units with cut sheets again.

Nice to have met you on-line here, Andrew.
