    ok, so after keeping the camera in the box for almost 2 weeks I finally decided to test it. sure the money are good but since it's a gift i felt bad to be so materialistic. anyways. after unboxing and using it for a day just at home I have to admit that is incomparable with anything I have...

    FS: Leica Q2 Brand New, 0 shots

    I got this camera as a gift for my work anniversary and I'm really indecisive if to keep it or trading it for lenses or cash. FYI I already own a Fuji GFX100 with 4 GF lenses I use primarily in the studio. I'm not a street photographer, and I see myself hardly using it other than an expensive...

    📷 Leica Q2, keep or sell? 📷

    I was gifted a Leica Q2 (long story I can skip), but I already own a Fuji GFX100 with 4 GF lenses I use primarily in studio I'm not a street photographer, and I see myself hardly using it other than an expensive flex prop. I believe an iPhone and its size factor can be even better at hiding and...

    GFX100 Firmware update Version: 3.01

    the 16-image DNG is still soft and I'll of artifacts. zooming a 1200% you can see there is more detail and less aromatic aberration but lots of checkered artifacts so I'm not sure if it;s even worth using it unless is for scientific reason or archiving or whatnot

    🤨❓Can anybody machine a Mini Salon counterweight for me?

    they seem to small for my need but i found some telescope counter weights that are smaller than 2 inches with a hole in the center they could be easily piled up (the main cable goes thru them) of course this can kill some inches when you lower the arm down.... i also found a machinist near...

    🤨❓Can anybody machine a Mini Salon counterweight for me?

    haha funny but the new counterweight has both male and female... so in theory you dont need to make a new hole, you just need to put the smaller weight first, then the original weight no? are the threads different? maybe an adapter can help?

    🤨❓Can anybody machine a Mini Salon counterweight for me?

    i think it's the same 3/8 thread, in fact one user on BH mentioned he did it that way, because he had a lathe available. I will look in my area for machinist then

    🤨❓Can anybody machine a Mini Salon counterweight for me?

    Not sure if this is the right forum section but surely the members are very knowledgeable so let me try: i have a manfrotto mini salon column stand and I wish to just an extra tad of counterweight because my cambo actus XL is a little heavier by few pounds. I can live with it with no problem...

    Cambo rail to Arca adapter?

    All my Arca clamps bot original Cube and D4 and chinese heads all have “wide” clamp... damn it’s just 10mm too wide otherwise i believe it would work ... have you ever stumbled upon narrower clamps?

    Cambo rail to Arca adapter?

    I mean the original Cambo cameras. The actus mini luckily has arca. Not the XL or other older 8x10 etc

    Is worth upgrading to Rodenstock HR lenses?

    all great points... in fact, I was very interested in the 90 or even the 105 HR with helicoid made for Cambo, but which seem too expensive for now
