“Reciprocity timer is saying 9, we’ll give it 10, just for fun” 😊 You’re bringing back memories from 30 years ago when as a kid I was shooting 4x5 out and about. Wonderful, slow, deliberate process. Lovely images. Thanks for making this.

Stunning shots, I've always been fascinated by the industrial landscape left behind by the slate quarries as both my grandfathers worked there (one at Dinorwic Quarry and the other at Oakelely), so I always get emotional watching beautifully shot videos like this.

I absolutely love your work, I've had generations of family work in this quarry and as an analogue photographer I love your approach. My only wish is that you knew more of the history of the North Wales quarries because then I feel like your photos would be impactful to yourself and the audience. But please keep visiting!

You Kyle are like Les Stroud. The Survivor Man. Going deep into the wilds, packed with cameras and purpose you are alone talking into the video cameras to explain the plan, the concept and how to execute it in any kind of weather. Must be a Canadian thing. As always it was informative and entertaining. Thanks for this, I really enjoyed it while eating pizza and drinking Brio !

Kyle that is great advice, at 14:48, but if I can add a little, If you aren't confident with the LF camera/lens you have (new to film, format, or new gear), get a 120 back and shoot 120 roll film, a lot cheaper, and if 6x9/6x7 this gets 8/10 shots per roll, so you have a few frames to play with, also 120 is a heck of a lot cheaper for colour images, if you 'think' that way, to do your comfort stock, until you get the "dance" right {Matt Marrash; Large Format Friday, Season 1, ep.1} get some 'MT' film, so you can dry run the shooting sequence, and get confidence up, also for darkroom tank loading, as that is a whole other thing as well.

With the stove shot, I like the idea of covering the letter Y with the pipe; give the impression it says 'hope'. I love the feel of all of these though. Reminds me very much of the guy reviving the old Cerro Gordo mining town, with things seemingly abandoned mid-use.

Kyle, one other point, to get a 'first roll/sheet, under ones' belt ' is something of a confidence booster, esp. if it goes well (proves to yourself everything is 'light tight'), esp. for some cameras, as assembling/takedown is a repetitive thing * esp. for monorails, where everything has to be 'field stripped' to travel with such a system.

Loved this - great combination of technical photography and one of my favourite places to climb and explore. I've been up That Ladder a few times! The Snakes and Ladders climbing route through the quarry takes in a fair number of hair-raising abseils and ladders (explore at your own risk folks, this is for experienced climbers) but gets you into places that are really mind-blowing (Rockfax do a great book of slate climbing with excellent maps for accessing places). Your images and process are inspiring me to get back there, thanks for a great video.

Makes me want to “get out there” with a Linhof that I have for many years - excellent work ! My lack of enthusiasm - accounting for leaving the Linhof in the press - was down to developing the sheets - from this video, it seems that, once you’ve fired the shutter, you consider you have the “shot in the bag”, so to speak - I never gained enough confidence to be able to think that !

As I vacillate with shooting 4x5 once again, I worry about the cost. The film is stupid expensive these days, I will, with out doubt shoot only Black and White. It will encourage the mind to think artistic and then the thoughts of cost goes away. I will cry about the cost latter. LOL

I'd love to come to Wales and spend some time at the place. I think Scotland and Ireland would be interesting too. Yes, I want to bring a camera. Question: I didn't see you use any tilt on the front standard. I'm not a field camera shooter (yet), but wonder if you might have been able to use a little tilt and then a little more aperture would shorten the time for the exposure. Thoughts? Also, inside the building I think I saw a couple more opportunities for a frame... one of the top of the stove and another of the window sill. Both looked like beautiful light and an interesting subject. Again, thoughts? I also noticed how the gray day really made the grass pop! I think a couple of color frames might have provided some interesting contrast between the gray of the slate and the saturated green of the grass. Thanks for taking me along!
@KyleMcDougall
@KyleMcDougall 4 ай бұрын
Thanks. As for the tilt question, depends on the scene. It's difficult at times when there are verticals running from top to bottom, or things near the top of the frame (near to camera) which would be OOF if using swing.

Lovely vid, story well told - especially good as unscripted and all to camera in the field. Good bunch of bangers, hard to pic a couple of faves, tho the arch and waterfall were definitely up there. Did you use any swing on the “slate wall” composition? I’d love to see some comparisons between what can be achieved via lens stopping vs technical movements, and that location looks like a “subject rich” area for that sort of tutorial. [that’s a comment, not an entitled demand btw, I appreciate whatever Kyle has the time to bring us along for]

@@KyleMcDougall Tried Retropan 320 lately and wasn't happy with the results. Tried Fomapan 400 when I started with 4x5 some years ago, and wasn't happy (actually better results as with Retropan, but not great - Ilford HP5+ is the way to go in that sensitivity range). Shot only 4 sheets of Fomapan 100 (from a friend who had bought a pack) back then (results weren't conclusive) and then changed to ADOX CHS 100 II (about double the price per sheet, which doesn't matter that much for "normal" shooting - but I'm starting to explore Trichrome, and then it does matter a lot).

I wasn’t a huge fan of the 400, but found 100 much better.
