  • Chamonix 4x5 view camera (very recent)
And these films:
  • KodakT-Max 100
  • Rollei Retro 100 (aka Agfa APX 100)
  • Rollei Retro 80s
  • Fuji Acros 100
  • Kodak Ektar 100
  • Kodak Kodachrome 64 (almost gone...)
Processed using:
  • Rollei 6x7 CXL Enlarger (aka LPL/Saunders/Omega) mounted with Schneider Componon-S 50/2.8 and Rodenstock Rodagon 80/4 for traditional printing
  • Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 ED for 35mm figital processing)
  • Epson V700 scanner for 120 and 4x5 figital processing
I shoot primarily:
  • Landscape

Ha! Ha! I know my way around a 35mm pretty well, but the 4x5 LF is another matter. Took me about 20 minutes to do a shot in the field today. I have yet to get setup figured out so that I am not tripping over the gear.

I used to live in the "other Vancouver," but that was a very long time ago. You might want to look up the Portland Photographers Forum and see what programs they have going on.

Thanks for the referral to the Portland Photographers Forum. I am not familiar with that group and will look them up.

I used to live in the "Vancouver to the North" a few decades ago (Richmond and the UBC Endowment Lands). It is a wonderful, vibrant, and beautiful city. My Vancouver is a little less inspiring, but has its good points. It is handy to Portland, the Columbia River Gorge, a major wildlife refuge, historic Ft. Vancouver (flies the HBC flag ), numerous rivers, a couple of volcanoes, and numerous other places with high photographic potential.
