Hello from vienna

[Aero40]

I have worked in the creative field throughout my professional life. My artistic practice focuses primarily on large-format photography, mainly in 5×7 and 4×5 formats. I have a particular fondness for vintage lenses, including an 1862 Petzval lens, the Soviet F-3 40 cm f/4.5, and many others.

If you are interested, you are welcome to browse my most recent book of lyrical photography:

Your book looks quite interesting. I'm in the process of building my first Wollaston landscape lens. Maybe you have some experience with that as well. My friend who helps me with film digitization technique is also in Vienna.

wooww that's very early... I had the chance to make photos with Susse Frères Daguerre Camera in the Westlicht Museum that was my earliest touch with photo history... and I am only a user and connoisseur from old camera and Lenses my oldest camera is build in Berlin 1910 in a 40x40cm studio camera with a Voigtländer from 1862. Your friend from vienna is Rudi or Zoltan?
