<p>"Mamiya 6 or 7.... if you are going medium format, then be faithful to it and keep to 6x6."<br /> The Mamiya 7 is 6x7 format.</p>

<p>I have used Kamera Korner in San Jose before, and was happy with their service. They are just south of downtown San Jose, at 545 Meridian Ave Suite E, San Jose, CA 95126.</p>

<p>You have to trip the shutter on the lens seperate from the shutter release button on the body. See page 29.</p>

Is there a noticeable problem with your images that you attribute to the hitech filters?

I cants spell todays

It shows an approximation of the depth of field for a given f stop. You rotates the ring to match your subject distance from the film plain, then you can read how much dof you get for a chosen f stop.

Would you be angry if it was 7/7 bots?

These helped me when i need a review.

The Nikon is wider, its a fish-eye with 180 degree angle of view, the sigma is a wide-angle with 102.4 degree angle of view.

Where filter holder systems have problems is with wide angle lenses. So to see if the Cokin P system will work you need to check your widest lenses. The p system works on lenses up to 82mm filter ring. I use the p system with my large format and RB 67 systems. I do not use very wide lenses though.

What does the 5d do that your d80 doesn't?

You will need one empty reel to hold the longer time reel down. And it might be easier to start the 14.5 minute roll first, then add the 9.5 reel. Then just finished processing as normal.

Keep them in a cabinet when not in use, with some silica gel t packets. Have a bunch of silica gel packets in my bags too. Just Google for silica gel, you can get all you will ever need for under $10.

If you have the lens on the RB set to mirror up, when you fire the body the back will flag the frame as being exposed, so you can advance it. But it will not be exposed unless you trip the shutter on the lens.

 

I would check the mirror up knob on the lens.

What is the difference between a 4 and a 5?

 

You can ask for critiques only, and ignore the numerical ratings, since they are meaningless anyway.

What camera should i use to get the image to match my imagination? I figure that a 8x10 daguerreotype has at least the same resolution as my imagination, if not more. How long before a dslr comes out that has more megapixels than my dreams?

Because the people that rated them didn't like them very much?

According to the ask perou section he is using a combination of film and medium format digital cameras.

 

"i still shoot film on anything that's is daylit on location.

 

can hardly tell the difference between film and the digital i shoot (phase 1 p30+ back on hasselblad h2d) on artificially lit shots.

 

very annoying of course as people still want their digital to look like film.

and as such, it's a false economy: people want you to shoot digital so they don't have to pay for film and processing.

but then they have to pay to have it retouched.

quicker and easier (if you have some appropriate old school skills) to shoot on film.

 

i'm not the Luddite i was.

but as before i'm using the right camera and format to suit the job.

i don't care about how it's achieved, i just care abou the end result.

 

next week at edinburgh, i'll be shooting some live theatre on my canon 1dsmkII. "

 

The biggest thing i see is the the use of proper exposure and the use of light. Which is always more paramount than finding a camera to get the look, learn to use light to get the look you want.

"Smaller photo-receptor means the same motion that only affected one pixel in the previous gen of sensor is now an issue, since the same motion will affect 2 pixels. "

 

How can you move only one pixel in the camera? The issue is that all of the pixels are in motion as the camera isn't steady as you take the picture, the blur comes from the movement of the camera during the exposure.

 

And 1/focal length is just a rough guideline, some people are more stable than others when using a camera. The camera being used also affects, i don't think i can hand hold my 4x5 monorail at any shutter speed.

What is your desired end product, print or digital file to view on a screen?
