Yes, a dark room is a real necessity for cutting film. I use an old ROTA-TRIM paper cutter (off Ebay) with a carefully placed 1/2" thick adjustable wooden stop set at 3 15/16" and a heavy duty paper punch to mark to the upper rightish corner. I also just happen to use a K.B. Canhum 8x10 wood, a 5x7 Ansco along with a remade (cut down) 4x10 Grundloch Korona. I do like your work, it feels like I'm falling into the picture.

on second look, as you rack the rear standard, it reminded me of a tip, on the Fred Newman site, when he reviewed this camera, as they are cam locks, lock ONE, then the other, NOT simultaneously!- the reason is, it can swing the standard, as you can lock the racking with a few degrees of swing, as when you lock each singly, the std has time to square itself, then the second locks this squareness in.

I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Chamonix 4X5 45F2, i shoot with that and LOVE LOVE, Love it! It is my first LF camera and it is super simple and VERY WELL MADE!
@c.augustin Жыл бұрын
Yep, I would second that! The Chamonix is well built and highly functional. Coming from an Intrepid 4x5 (*not* recommended, but useful if you don't know if you would stick to 4x5), the Chamonix does everything right the Intrepid doesn't. Not exactly cheap, but good value for money. And only slightly heavier than the Intrepid. If I had known that I would stick to 4x5, I should've bought it in the first place (I would've saved a lot of money, because it got much more expensive by now).
@MARKLINMAN1 Жыл бұрын
@@c.augustin yes, I was VERY lucky because I was looking at the Intrepid, but talking to another photographer he told me to look at Chamonix which is a much better made camera and SOLID all the way around, sooo glad I went the Chamonix route.
@c.augustin Жыл бұрын
@@MARKLINMAN1 Yeah, but I wasn't sure, and it was a bit experimental (I use the 4x5 for pinhole photography). I did some changes to the Intrepid that made it better suitable for what I was after, which I would never made to the Chamonix. But the Chamonix offers one very important accessory that I learned I often need - wide angle (bag) bellows. Another expense, but a very important one! And being able to move the back forward and backward comes in handy for wide angle photography.

Wow, those two pine trees! 👌🏻👌🏻 What a stunning place! Your film holder box was cool, just have to make sure the locks are on the holders… Always had too much dust using a dark bag when loading 4x5’s. Ended up buying more holders and loading at home. That camp-top is sweet! Awesome video!

Yeah, that place was great. Thank you! When the film holder chest is closed it applies pressure to the top of each dark slide, no worries there.

a tip, for the 4x5 camera, as you shoot a K.B. Canham, why not lead people to the Fred Newman channel, he did quite a few of them, full assemble and pack-up as well as features, plus tripod recomendations, etc. a well recomended site to visit.

They are great cameras. Ah, with the 110mm lens boards. Very nice. I wanted to be able to use Sinar sized boards. His really early cameras came standard with Toyo 158 boards. Now I believe they only fit Sinar sized boards.

@shanedignum Жыл бұрын
Thank you! I have used a 4x10 splitter, they work fine. You have to be careful not to double expose and obviously each shot must be processed the same. A good budget option if you're not shooting a lot of panos.
