Kinda want to get into large format. Is there any resources to read in terms of things to buy? I'm not really sure what's just an easy solid set of things to buy to allow me to just start shooting.

Honestly, LF is pretty easy to get into you need a camera, lens, film and some holders. There are few more bits if you don't have a tripod that is up to snuff or haven't been developing your own B&W and need to get a tank or whatever. What's your rough budget and the things you intend to shoot? Thanks for the advice! Joined the forum just now. My budget is... I'm not really sure, bang for the buck is more of a concern I guess. I tend to shoot a lot of things. Recently bought a Leica M6 and have been really enjoying that for everything. However when I go on hikes around here in Southern California I've felt like, wow it'd be great to slow down and work on a bigger piece and it's just really loving cool to have a bigger negative. (My only exposure to MF/LF is my Mamiya 645). So yeah, a lot of landscapes. Although some of the LF portraiture I've seen have been absolutely mind blowing so I wouldn't mind experimenting with that either. Randuin fucked around with this message at 08:43 on Nov 14, 2014 |

I already have a V700 and have access to a darkroom (with chemicals!) for free. So that part definitely helps a lot. I think I definitely might go towards a Chamonix setup

bobmarleysghost posted:Speaking of GW's, is a Fuji GW690 II in supposedly EX condition worth US$300? I'm inclined to say yes... Is it really only that much? I've been looking a while although I'm more inclined to pick up something square format...

crap nerd posted:The large format "Intrepid" camera that was on kickstarter a while back is taking orders now. Kinda tempted to get one though I should probably wait and see what people have to say about them. I just put in an order for one. It's cheap enough to get even if it ends up being kind of a dud.
