I love my F2! I bought it after shooting on an Intrepid for about 2 years as a present to myself.

[@waynesimon7096]

Very good advice to the beginner 4x5 user. Many people think they have to jump in with the biggest and most expensive unit. For someone new to 4x5 I always suggest second hand and simple. Keep cost low and if you hate it you're not out of pocket. And don't tell me there are no deals out there. In March I purchased a 4x5 Linhof Kardan Color for $120 U.S. The owner was going to send it to a landfill if he could not get it sold. Deals are out there...

[@mauhimauhi2063]

Great Video. Usually for beginners the videos out there are on landscape photography. But it seems for portraits you dont need all those movements. Would be great if you could do a video showing how to shoots portraits without all those movements

[@zakshah3480]

As someone who wants to shoot fashion and portraits, I think this would be a great idea

[@erichstocker8358]

Of course I am not a complete novice so some of the remarks you made do not apply to me. I have a Linhof color Kardan monorail. It is really lightweight in comparison to most and got it for a great price. I can use this if I don't have to hike too far (I dissemble and fit in backpack). However, if I need to hike a lot or uphill, etc then I use my Intrepid 4x5 which I really like. It is lighter than my Sony a7rIII with 24-105 and as a result I can travel anywhere with it. Intrepid is a great camera company that provides TONS of support. I send an email and get a response within the day (depending upon time). I love the Linhof and the inteprid. They are great tools that I can choose based on the task. The linhof uses the larger lens board where the intrepid uses a small linhof board. I have a large to small adapter that I use on my linhof camera. Then I can use the mounted lenses on both cameras. Can't recommend either too much. I enjoy them and the process that goes with using them.

Great advice, Nico. Cheers!

Thanks!

360p squad! (Also, this question is exactly what I need right now! 😲😲☺)

[@diegoramosg]

Thanks for the video! What do you think it is the cheapest color film.

[@Cameraville]

waiting for my weekly news!

[@NicosPhotographyShow]

Its exporting as I type.

[@gurindiadventures3810]

Sorry, COMPLETE noob here. What’s the word starting with s that he uses to describe tilting to get foreground and background in focus? (says it’s useful for landscapes and tabletop photography)

[@NicosPhotographyShow]

[@reidelnord]

How long did it take to get your Chamonix Camera after placing your order?

[@NicosPhotographyShow]

I used to distribute the cameras in Spain, so not long at all.

[@AlexanderHernandez-sb7lq]

Awesome. Just bought an 45N-2

[@sgroadie6367]

Are there new budget monorails to buy? I know old Sinar, Toyo, Cambo can be relatively inexpensive.

[@NicosPhotographyShow]

You have a new brand Standard Cameras making them, they are more in line with the new budget cameras. But its a nice cheap option.

[@Dahrenhorst]

A new budget monorail is budget for a reason. There were corners cut in the one or other part of that camera. Get one of the old monorails from 50 years or so ago. This technology can't get outdated. You only need to make sure that there is now wiggling in the movements by worn out clamps, screws, threads or rails after decades of use, and that the bellows and light seals are still impermeable.

[@sgroadie6367]

@@NicosPhotographyShow thanks, but Standard Cameras 4x5 does not have geared movements.

[@sgroadie6367]

@@Dahrenhorst yes..the old monorails may have extensive wear. I am not familiar, so may not know how to go about replacing worn parts.
