Hello from Sheffield

Post by Vin Rigby » Thu Dec 29, 2011 8:29 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Hello all

After many years with film cameras up to medium format then 10 years with digital cameras I at last have ventured into large format photography with the aquisition of a lovely old Crown Graphic 5x4. The real appeal to me was going back to B&W film processing that I have missed and then scanning the negs to allow 'lightroom' processing and printing in the living room (its just as well really as there's no spare room to convert to a darkroom after down-sizing to where we live now).

Best Regards

Vin

Thanks for the welcome Glenn. Looking forward to getting out for some landscape shots as soon as the rain and winds subside!

Best regards

Vin

Know what you mean. The weather's awful down this way at the moment.
