I've used a sinar f2 for decades. It's about setting the proper angles and setting the DOF correctly. The camera originally came with an orange card that's size of the lens board that fits in the F2 image kit. But these are the best books to learn.Hi All,
I've owned a Sinar F2 for a year or so now but never used it due to just not understanding it basically.
Gone through the Sinar manual on how to set focus and DOF and it seems easy enough but quite simply i can't get it work. For example using tilt for landscape i would have though i would be tilting forward but am always tilting back according to the scale.
It would be great if i could grab some help from a Sinar user as i've now got a project for the camera and really need to get the hang of it.
I've read loads on forums abut this topic but a lot of different opinions and some that fly in the face of the official manual and each other !
Any Help appreciated.

Here is a great book for beginners. It's very easy to understand starting out. You may find a used version on Ebay if you want to save some money.
