    what waS your last photography related purchase?

    I decided that my Nikon Z 24mm to 200mm VR lens was not letting me get the telephoto range I wanted. So I bought Nikon Z 28mm to 400mm VR lens and a Nikon Z 17mm to 28mm lens and now I have offer the Nikon Z 24mm to 200mm VR lens for sale in the Classified Ads here at Photrio.

    Place the shadow. Place the highlight.

    It took very heavy slogging through the Zone System until I could distill it and get it simplified. Then I concentrated on the exposure part only and the clouds really cleared and it became much simpler and easier to us. Stick to box speed Choose which shadow detail is the darkest one that...

    Medium Format Folder Recommendations?

    Almost any old camera will have probably been sitting around for a while and may need a CLA. In fact when I am shopping for an old used camera, I either factor in the cost of a CLA or buy it from KEH.com since if a camera they sold needs a CLA, they will promptly do one for the buyer. Just ask.

    Tank compatibility for Jobo CPE2

    The supporting rollers are a must. I use a cog to connect the drum, not the magnet. I use the lift, but the bar was broken off when I received it, so I left the tank by hand.

    Hasselblad B60 filter retighten

    Great emphasis on "slightly". It is much better to repeat the slightly twist than to over do it. I personally us the "out' method, not the "down" method.

    Starting long exposure photography.

    The most important part is exposure. This will improve you success rate. I have been using the Jiffy Night Exposure slide rule since it was first published in 1963.

    What 35mm camera would you recommend for the cost of a meal?

    The Nikon N75 is exactly the camera I would recommend as a camera for serious work at a low cost. I used it as my go to camera for 35mm color work for years.

    This is a clever idea to use when on cannot get a Macbeth chart in time, but I personally will stick to the MacBeth chart for serious color work. Thank you for sharing.

    My first tray development - Issues

    It could be a defect in the film. It looks too consistent to have come from tray development. One way to find out would be to see if it appears on a second negative.

    Perspective

    It is possible to use focal length as the functional driver to controlling perspective. I have done that in the past and will likely do that in the future. A longer length lens can make subjects appear to stack up while a wider angle lens makes it appear as though the observer has stepped back.

    Has a specific camera ever opened up or transformed your photography?

    WideLux F7 makes me think in panoramic frames on landscapes and vertical views of objects.
