    ALPA and HY6 back adapter

    Wow! I never knew their was an Alpa adapter for my Sinar eMotion 75. This takes my fantasizing to a whole new level! But, viewing and chimping would be challenging. Anyone use Sinar backs with Alpa? Thanks, Mitchell

    Fun with MF images - ARCHIVED - FOR VIEWING ONLY

    Baxter, Great shot. I love not only the reflection, but also how the reflection pool mirrors the shape of the island. I wonder if this could all be emphasized more by cropping below the reflection pool. I like it either way. Best, Mitchell

    Luka, Hope you will forgive me messing with your image, but this is how it first appeared on my small screen and I liked it. I find it really interesting to try different crops. You have alot of great stuff here. Best, Mitchell

    Ryan, I'm sure Savanna is lovely and all that but I can't help feeling you're missing out on all our snow, ice, freezing rain, slush, not to mention mud season which comes next. But, if it makes you happy.... Best, Mitchell

    What is it about a Leica?

    I'm not sure if Leica shots are better, but if they are I think it has mostly to do with the simplicity of operation. When shooting my M9, I'm more concentrated on the subject, less aware of the camera, and less distracted by it. Or maybe it's the selection of photographers attracted to...

    New: Raw Developer 1.9

    Thanks Woody, Good to know you use RD. I admire your work. I had a little trouble downloading RD 1.9, and Brian at Raw Developer was very fast and helpful in response to the problem and my other general questions. I don't know how he finds the time as a seemingly one-man shop. Best, Mitchell

    Please Help-Monitor Color Temperature

    Thanks pfigen and Wayne, Much appreciated. The greater warmth of the prints is noticeable well away from the monitors. My studio has some sort of full spectrum florescent lights installed by my artist landlord. I don't suppose any florescent light is suitable? Best, Mitchell

    Please Help-Monitor Color Temperature

    I have been trying mightily to get a match between what I see on my Apple Cinema monitors, and what comes out of my Epson 3800 printer. I bought a Colormunki to calibrate my monitors and printer. With some help from X-rite support (they were great, actually answered the phone 3 times, and...

    Photo mounting and plexiglass

    I have had inkjet (Epson 3800 with Glossy Epson Paper) and cibachrome prints face mounted to plexiglass by Zero Station in Portland Maine. They look great. Does anyone know about their archival properties? Best, Mitchell

    Gear & Our Art: 2011?

    Most great artists have been intensely involved with their media and tools, playing with them, exploring the edge of their limitations, using them in novel ways, or using new and novel tools. The exploration and skill seems to have been the important thing. The choice of tool (i.e. limitation)...

    Lens recommendations for M9

    Wayne, I shoot mostly landscapes, but usually something intimate or abstract, not the big picture. My favorite lens is the 50 Lux. I also have a 35/2.0, 28/2.0, and a 90/2.8. Never use the 35. If I go wide, I want the wide look I get with the 28. The 90 is great, relatively small and cheap by...

    The Latest & Greatest Fun w/Digital M Images

    A really great shot, and one of the few I've seen that works from any orientation. The one you choose is probably the best, but it's interesting to see that they all have something different to offer. Best, Mitchell

    Noctilux 50mm f 1.0 as a single lens

    If you want only one lens, the choice of focal length is very personal. I shot exclusively outside, mostly landscape, tending towards intimate and abstract. My most used lens is the 50/1.4. 50mm is the most like the view of our eyes, what is seen through the lens most closely matches what I see...
