A Saucy Bratwurst posted:How do you guys go lugging around all the gear for those big LF landscapes? It'd all be quite heavy and awkward wouldn't it? How do you guys go with the expense too, LF film would cost (relatively) a shitton right? My 4x5 weighs less than and is about the same size as my 6x7 gear. Only 8x10 is heavy and awkward for me, and even then that's because my 8x10 is a metal monorail instead of a folding wooden and CF field camera like my 4x5. As for film costs, I end up spending only slightly more than when I shot only 6x7, because I only take the $6 photos I know will be decent, rather than taking lots of $1 photos that may or may not turn out.

BANME.sh posted:I am curious, how much do you typically reframe a shot before you press the shutter? Like you said with 35mm and even MF I'll usually see something interesting, take a shot, and then go "poo poo, I better try that from another angle." So I end up taking 3-4 of the same subject and picking my favorite in the end. I never take my camera out of the bag without being reasonably sure of how I'm going to compose the photo.

I recommend you skip straight to LF, inevitably get frustrated, then come back here and post about it so we can say we told you so

Actually, there is a lens that will get you 10mm equivalent FOV on 8x10: the Goerz Hypergon 75mm. Don't let naysayers like ansel autisms tell you it's not possible!! Oh, by the way, even that beat-up example is $3500 and there's no shutter.

Cyne posted:There was some Pentax 67 chat last page so I hope you guys might be able to set me straight on my new 6x7 - it's been a dream camera of mine for awhile but I just got mine yesterday and I'm afraid I'm loving poo poo up already. Can you open the back and show us what it looks like? I agree that at this point you'll be losing the first few shots on the roll no matter what. I'm wondering if maybe you loaded the film backwards? If the lever is at that point, it's not fully wound yet. When the first frame is ready to shoot the lever should be in its resting position.

Focus on your mental wellbeing and you'll be better prepared to come back strong when you're ready. Sometimes I go a month or two without really taking pictures and it doesn't even require trauma - but when I start again, I feel fresh and the results are always good.
