  1. <p>I already asked this question about Berlin, but i'm asking again if anyone know a Billingham bag shop in Moscow? I really want to buy one and i was searching the web for these bags in Moscow and didn't find any shops. But maybe you know... </p>

    <p>Thank you very much </p>

  2. <p>Well, I use now 1Ds markII with 17-40 lens , i like it very very much, the colores, saturation,contrast,sharpness everything is great.<br>

    The only thing i hate is the F/4, I shoot documentary, news, and everyday I shoot a lot in side and the high iso in the 1Ds is good but F/4 is not good for me. <br>

    I bought the 17-40 and not the 16-35 because the differens in the lenses is only one stop. And this stop wouldn't help me, so I thought of buying Canon 24mm f/1.4 because I love primes, and most of my shoot with the 17-40 are 20-28...</p>

    <p>My question is how the 24mm f/1.4 is different/better then the 17-40 f/4?! What are the optical differences in these 2 lenses.</p>

    <p>thank you.</p>

  3. Well I need a backpack that wouldn't be to big.

    I'm caring in my backpack Hasselblad 501 with 150mm lens without a back, Hasselblad SWC with a back, Zoom H4 sound recorder,

    Macbook and couple of notebooks. It's not to much equipment to carry but the small National geographic wont fit me.

    the problem with Tamrac is that I hate al this Photo begs and the National geographic looks to safari as all say. So i don't know what to

    buy for this equipment...

     

     

    thank you

  4. I swichted from rollei to hassel, and i'm looking for portrait lens, for wide i have my Hassy SWC and i love it!!:):)

     

    Medium format portrait lens quest :

     

    first of all i started with rollei 6003 and 180mm lens with 17mm tube, It's to big for me and the minimum focus point is very far from what

    i'm looking for.

    Then I bought the 120mm f/4 macro-planar and never put it a side,love it BUT sometimes it make the face's look wide like with 80mm

    lens:( this is the only problem I got with this lens.

     

    Well and now I switched to Hasselblad, 501C body and I need a portrait lens and i don't know maybe i shouldn't by 120mm and take

    150mm instead (but i never used) and my concern is that the minimum focus point of 120mm 0.8 is not the same as 150mm 1.4mm and it

    can be critical for me because i shoot a lot of Feet (i'm working on a book called "Portrait Manifest- Foot Fetish vol.2" ) and all of the

    frame's kind of close-up. OOO and Planar Sonnar question... what is better ??

     

     

    This is example of foot frame that i shoot:

  5. Hi I'm flying to berlin next week and i'm looking for a trade-in shop to trade my rollei 6008 integral2 with 80mm

    lens,120mm lens,180mm lens,45 prism to Hasselblad 503cw and 120mm f/4 lens (maybe also 45 prism).

     

    Do you know where in berlin i can find a shop that will trade me??

  6. Hello, 10 day's ago I was shooting at the sea with my ROllei 6003 and distagon 50mm, and after 13

    minutes of 15 minute exposure the tripod fault into the sea, My camera and the lens- lets say: "total

    lost!!":(

     

    Well Now I'm thinking about buying another rollei probably 6008Integral2, I whodunit buy another

    distagon, instead i'll wait about 2,3 month and buy Hasselblad SWC;)... But now I don't know may be a

    should buy Hasselblad 503 instead of Rollei?? I love all the electronics but, They don't let me think, I work

    with the rollei like it's a machine gun,like me Canon 5d... Hasselblad wont need batteries (it's a BIG PLUS)

    well and all the metering I can do My sell with my minolta meter.!?\

     

    What do you think 505CX vs. Rollei 6008 integral 2 ??? Manual,no battery's vs. electronic fast work.

     

    I work most off the time in studio and my journalist work i do digital. I need the meduim format for

    portrait and landscape. For landscape i'll get the Hasse SWC , for portrait I'm thinking between Rollei and

    Hasselblad.

  7. If i'll buy LF it's for using 4x5 most of the time:)

    I had before a Cambo LF it was nice,but I want more series approach to LF.

    I wan't a good lenses i want a camera for long time now. There is no where to run from the

    big brother, i loved my camera, but because it's dead I thing of going higher ;)

    I know that working with big format is a tuff job but because of my runnig I killed my rollei

    because i'm always on the run. i need to settle down to thing and my be doing one shoot

    instead of 12 or 36..

  8. Hello, 4 day's ago I was shooting at the sea with my ROllei 6003 and distagon 50mm, and after 13 minutes

    of 15 minute exposure the tripod fault into the sea, My camera and the lens- lets say: "total lost!!":(

     

    For me today to buy a new rollei with this lens is about 4,000 dollar maybe more (second hand)

    so I started thinking and I thought may be to buy 4X5 camera with 4x5 back and 6x6 back!? Linhof has a

    6x6 back:):):) And every time that i was thinking of 4x5 i was looking at the Technikardan 4x5 of linhof , I

    never used it It just look's great and I know that linhof is a great camera brand.

     

    I know that in this way or another I will by 4x5 one day so why no to do it today??!! I will sell my Rollei

    lenses and by a wide and tele for LInhof!? My question is which lenses to take,sothing good but not

    something tooo expensive !? I need 50mm on 6x6 and 120mm on 6x6!?

     

    I shoot in most portraits in studio,So tell me IS IT A GOOD CHOOSE?

  9. Need help : I want A backpack for everyday.. I got one bag for my medium format camera and i want one

    for my laptop (macbook 13") and Canon 5D with 28mm and maybe another lens.

     

    I fought of taking Dakine bag cos' I love tham, but i don't know what to choose :(:(:(

     

     

    Dakine Mission vs. Dakine Sequence

     

    The Sequence looks beautiful but i think that it's bigger than Mission

  10. Would the 30mm work with my ROllei 6003 and If it will is it really a fish-eye

    lens like the Nikon 16mm fish-eye!? or it's more like nikon's 20mm lens?!

    I was thinking of getting the 50mm and soddenly I found the 30mm used in some

    shop in Moscow(where form i order my gear) and I was thinking maybe go wider

    than 50mm... what can you say about the 30mm lens??

  11. well I Love my Rollei and 99% of all my pictures made by it:) I don't like my Fuji it's big and I don't know if I really need it,I really want a everyday camera that i can throw into the bag,I had Hasse Xpan rangefinder and I it was great but I know for sure the only film that i'll shoot from now is 120 (Rollei) ... I don't want to go back to 35mm, so I thought That Leica M8 will be great for my,for my photojournalism it can be nice and for everyday work Leica is so small:):)
  12. How good is This M8 comparing to FUji s5 or Nikon D200 !? I use Fuji now for my

    digital work (photojournalism and jewelery-macro) and for everything else I use

    Rollei 6003 (LOVE IT) but I thought maybe selling My Fuji and get A small camera

    like M8 but Is the M8 is truly a great camera like the Film Leica's ??
