Question about using old lenses
danielheller replied to cynthia_tarvin's topic in Beginner Questions
<p>What do you intend to photograph? What level of photography do you aspire to achieve? Do you wish to be a film devoted person or a digital photographer? So many questions you need to answer before we can point you in the right direction. You certainly can keep the gear you have and also purchase a digital like a Sony alpha A7 or similar mirrorless interchangeable lens camera. I have one and it is a joy to use and very light. As others have stated here, please hit a photo store to try the cameras in your hands and to get help.</p> -
Suggestions for medium format camera needed
danielheller replied to rifqi_dahlgren's topic in Medium Format
<p>Congratulations Rifqi. Like I said you are now shooting with the legends.<br> I definitely agree that the focusing screen is a must. I own the Acute-Matte with grid and split image rangefinder (42170) and it is a pleasure. Incidentally this is one area where the Hassy is superior to the Rollei. The Rollei's are darker.</p> -
Scanner Help Wanted
danielheller replied to paul_c8's topic in The Digital Darkroom: Process, Technique & Printing
<p>Buying a film scanner to achieve "good to excellent" results will require a substantial outlay of money. The best choice would be indeed a Flextight.<br> Buying a film scanner to achieve "average" results, could cost $1-1,999, used or new. Some of the scanners mentioned in this thread may fit the requirements.</p> -

<p>Never assume that a seller is giving away something out of his "good heart".<br />Usually, "you get what you pay for". Would it be possible to inspect it?<br> Prices I believe are about $550-600 (USD) for the older model of this camera.</p>

Suggestions for medium format camera needed
danielheller replied to rifqi_dahlgren's topic in Medium Format
<p>The Rollei or the Blad.<br> Both have excellent lenses.<br> The Rollei is much lighter than the Blad and more portable.<br> The Rollei is also a bit more fragile construction wise.<br> Although you say now you do not need many lenses, your statement may change in time. So, the Blad.<br> There are many more Blads on the used market than Rolleis.<br> Either way you choose, you'll be "shooting with the legends"!</p> -

End of an Era for Me
danielheller replied to m._howard_edwards's topic in The Wet Darkroom: Film, Paper & Chemistry
<p>Why not use a pro lab like LTI in New York City?</p> -
<p>My favorite and only medium format camera used is Hasselblad.<br> In abundance on the used market, many many awesome lenses to choose from, very well built and, you would be "shooting with the legends"</p>
-
<p>A new Hasselblad Flextight would do a "very good job"</p>

can't decide between rolleiflex 3.5f and hasselblad
danielheller replied to vladimir_m's topic in Medium Format
<p>Hasselblad.<br> Lot more to choose from on the market, a much larger lenses selection, and a lot less delicate then Rollei TLR. And yes, it is heavier and less portable.</p> -
Finish for night skyline shots framed
danielheller replied to jeff_l5's topic in The Wet Darkroom: Film, Paper & Chemistry
<p>Do not use any glass or plexiglass. At least at one photographer exhibit I recently visited in a gallery, the photographs were framed, but there was no glass and no plexiglass, the prints were exposed!</p>
