This is a LF camera: LF is not as hard as you think. Ask in the thread or read largeformatphotography.info. This is a MF camera:  Because MF is larger than puny 35mm full frame, it counts too! So go ahead and share your shots! alkanphel fucked around with this message at 09:08 on Jul 15, 2016 |

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? If you have to do it, you have to do it, no matter the cost.

elgarbo posted:Okay I'm very excited that there's a fresh new LF/MF thread because I just bought a near mint Pentax 67 and it's totally rad and good. (Although shooting the solely mechanical C330 made me forget about things like batteries - my first trip out to take pictures ended in much frustration with a dead battery.) I played with a P67 once, I managed to short out all the batteries I put into the prism within seconds. That was pretty dumb of me.

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. Yeah quoting the rest, usually you have the shot in your head 80% of the time even before you setup the LF camera. The remaining 20% is the fine-tuning in the ground glass after you set it up. Like you know how they say, with digital you'd probably shoot 10 shots, with MF film you take about 2-3 shots, with LF you just take that 1 shot.

Paul MaudDib posted:That sounds like the problem right there. You don't put the batteries into the prism. Oh wait it's at the bottom of the body or something right? But actually it was the way I put the flat cell batteries together. I did it the right way after that.

Im That One Guy posted:I found this lever on my 6X7 that I can't seem to find on any of the manuals online. Is it maybe for using different film formats seeing how its next to the 120/220 switch?

Helen Highwater posted:This is true. I was doing headshots and group photos for my company's webpage today with my Kiev 88. Next door to our new office space is a photo studio and the two very nice girls from there were watching what we were doing and playing around with 5D3s and some nice L glass. I asked if they'd mind pushing the button for the group shots with me in them, and they thought it was just the neatest thing. I gave them a roll of film to play with and they gave me their phone numbers... Also TLRs are huge chick magnets, as I've discovered.

tau posted:You MFers are making me miserable; I want that look and those colors, but I'll keep myself from doing something stupid for a little while longer until I get better with what I have now. Keep sharing, please. This is my new favorite photo thread. Majority of the photos here are from LF tho

somnambulist posted:Help me out goons! Wait for Fuji's much more affordable clone of the X1D. Should be announced at Photokina but I could be wrong. If you've ever played with a digital MF raw file, it's very different from the normal FF camera files, regardless of the megapixels. However you didn't exactly mention what you don't like about your current large prints?

somnambulist posted:In what way is it different? (MF raw compared to FF) Richer and more malleable files, better tonality. But if you want detail, that's really the domain of megapixels, so if the 5Dsr doesn't do it for you, you might want to rent a Hasselblad H6D with the 100mp back and see if that gives you what you want. Or look into stitching with the smaller megapixel backs.

You might want to consider the Hasselblad multishot cameras as well: http://www.hasselblad.com/h5-system/h5d-multi-shot

beep-beep car is go posted:And Alkanphel's but he doesn't let people not him bbcode share them (I didn't know you could do that.) Hmm I didn't know that either but I think I have now changed the setting that would allow people to share my bbcode. Amusingly I ran into the same situation as you when compiling the OP of this thread. Anyway yeah for color I shoot almost only slides, mostly Provia 100F but occasionally Velvia 50 in the past (and some rare Astia 100F).
