Lens Hood for Brooks-Plaubel Veriwide 100?

[xya]

A very funny thing: on my Firefox browser I can't see the picture you linked...

But no, this isn't it.

Its more like the no. 3 extension ring on the picture,

this one would be perfect....but not available anymore 12mm

Yes, that's what I meant... Good night.

Do you mean to try an adapter ring like this ....and forget any hood?

How will that make any difference w/o a hood? It's flat.

Huss, that is correct. it's just a filter adapter. to add a 58 mm spacer ring of some depth could potentially be the "hood". IT is tricky because who knows what will actually result in more vignetting.

I don't think there is a real hood solution. Maybe hold a hat to shield the sun?

The lens vignettes already. But I guess the concern now is hard vignettes.

Portraits? You can sometimes do a group grope....but the edge distorted.

I do portraits w my Veriwide. You just gotta pose them appropriately...

Spectacular!

...and needless flaring.

that sky looks somewhat like Luminar. I assume the sun behind you?

Shot straight into the sun, kinda, didn't have any flare issues

 

[hap]

This hand held or on tripod?

Maybe above and slightly behind.

This hand held or on tripod?

Hand held. Tmax 3200 @ 800

 

[Huss]

Same day, same camera/film

Hand held. Tmax 3200 @ 800

So exposure and development at 800.....or standard ?

Developed it normally. Shot it rated at 800. Normally to me means box speed which is 800-1000.

this picture demonstrates that edge distortion requires special composition.

 

[Huss]

Here it is printed 30 inches long, ready for a customer.

Bottom line, the Veriwide is a very sweet piece! Such a soft shutter release. It's why I kept it and sold my GW690III

 

[hap]

Very cool....I'm inspired to get some of my negs out, if I can find them among my clutter and chaos.

The one thing that makes me not use this camera so often are the stories that the film advance mechanism is fragile. Not sure if that is true or not, but I make sure to wind it on very gently!

Question - when I complete the roll, the roll never fully winds around itself (the way you can with a TLR for example). It always leaves a long leader - which has not had any ill effect, but it just seems a little worrying. Is this normal?

Haven't used it lately. However, I do advance the winding fairly carefully initially but later got frisky. Can't remember the issue of a long leader.
