    Landscapes on 35mm film?

    Often I find the best landscapes by asking locals for those secret places that only locals know about.

    What was your latest SLR Lens purchase?

    Well a few years ago I too stopped having GAS and I do not get temped by cameras or lenses much since. As a teenage too had camera lust, but it was for a Bronica S and I still do not have one.

    Poor eddie got his knickers all knotted up because he got caught in a lie with his widdle pants down. When you grow up, hopefully you will not need to weasle word.

    Macro: Magnification obtained using reversing lens

    The magnification does not matter. What matters is does it give you what you want?

    What is your definition of photography ?

    Weasel wording. Also know as just lying. No lying nails it quite nicely. Just do not call masturbation photography. How pathetic.

    What is your definition of photography ?

    It merely limits the label. There is never a reason for using one method as the name for another. Are you too blind to see the advantages of truth in advertising? If you are not true to yourself, are you ever honest?

    What was your latest SLR Lens purchase?

    Yes, right. Maybe the last camera you purchase for the month. It is like eating one potato chip.

    What is your definition of photography ?

    One one has lost the truth of the scene, you have lost your soul. When one adds or removes major items from the frame, it is no longer photography; one might as well use a paint brush.

    My Hasselblad 500C/M with 80mm planar is seriously out of sync

    Fire the shutter and HOLD THE BUTTON DOWN until the shutter closes on longer exposures. That keeps the barn doors open while the shutter is open.

    What is your definition of photography ?

    Photography is about taking a photograph of something as it is. If one changes it to something else, that is NOT photography.

    Hasselblad Repairs?

    I bought the 500mm C lens from KEH. I make sure it was cocked, then I mounted it on my 503 CX. The lens jammed on firing and I could not remove it. Mike at Samys got the lens off. He said that all the optics needed to be removed to CLA the lens and that it would be expensive. So I sent to...

    Equivalent Depth of Field

    I would use a bright light to focus. It does not need to be large.

    Equivalent Depth of Field

    Any photograph, whether or not macro, when the depth of field is critical, I always focus and stop down to see exactly what I will get. I do not bother with charts, tables or interactive tools because I need to see what I will get.

    Things can be defined by defining what it is not. The quote does that well.

    Landscapes on 35mm film?

    Some of my 35mm color photographs have the composition, exposure, film, ... to be good enough to print 24" x 36" prints, but I have to send them off to fully optical photo finishers to get the print made properly. Therefore I shoot 6x6 now. Hasselblad Zeiss optics and a larger negative and...

    The fickle nature of photographers...

    Well, I sell or give mount and framed prints to the people who are important to me. No stress and live is good.

    The fickle nature of photographers...

    I do not consider those circles worthwhile. My time is important so can cannot be bothered with the opinion of EyeD10Ts on twitter./instagram/facebook on my photography. They are not worthy.
