    Photojournalism (Credentialed) in the Digital Age

    Even worse the GWCs [Guy/Girl With Camera] are willing to give their photographs away just to be able to have the photographs published by news organizations. A press photographer has even more trouble supporting themselves and their families.

    Same focal length, same speed, same film format, one lens is a zillion times bigger than the other.

    Just for clarification: rangefinders have the following real advantages: Lacking "what is you see is what you get" focusing Lacking ability to see what the polarizer effect is through the viewfinder Inability to use shorter than 21mm wide angle lenses Inability to use longer than 135mm...

    Want to Buy WTB: 28mm Viewfinder

    I cannot beat the price. I compared it to the rangefinder viewer which has the lines for the 35mm lens and the outside edge is for the 28mm and the purchased 28mm viewfinder is the same but easier for me to use.

    110/16mm Camera Image Quality

    Several years ago an APUGger stated that as a teenager he attempted to open a flash cube with a screw driver resulting in burnt hands and a big after image that lasted a long time. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

    Mysterious parts for Hasselblad? Need someone to help to identify what are they.

    Where is it mounted? In the camera or in the photographer's posterior high up?

    Want to Buy WTB: 28mm Viewfinder

    I order a 28mm from China for not a lot of money. I can't find the post on Photrio that pointed me to a company that makes 15mm, 18mm, 21mm, 24mm, 28mm and 35mm viewfinders that clip on the hot or cold shoe.

    Why large format?

    I have those and I never use a roll back. I much rather shoot 4"x5" if I am going to take the camera out at all.

    Just sour grapes from one of those with equipment make obsolete in the 1960s by 35mm slrs. There were LR slrs from the turn of the twentieth century and MF slrs came in the 1950's. Crying towels supplied on request.

    Wrong again. The Golden Ratio was a concept developed by the Greeks, it despite your comment is not divine.

    I found one more! Providing the user the experience of needing to correct for parallax much like the TLR does for 120 film

    There is an ecclesiastical error in your statement. G-d created 6x6 and square formats; man screwed around and came up with 6x4.5 formats.

    Expensive in that space that could be put to other use is occupied by the darkroom. Others in the household might want that space for other things. It is a Zero Sum Game.

    MF hardware price outlook

    There was a glut of MF equipment between 2000 and 2010 when the professional photographers switched to digital and dumped Hasselblads and Rollei slrs on the market. That was the time to buy. Good supply and many choices.

    Mamiya TLR - Best "normal" lens?

    My father would ask permission to take a portrait and when they agreed he would get to close it looked like he was going to shove each lens so his Mamiya C330 up each nostril. Every time I think of taking a portrait I see the look of horror on the faces of those people. I do not shoot...
