I've done that with all the mirrors in my house because the view is much better when I'm standing in front of it.
In my case it's better to keep behind the mirrors and scenes.I've done that with all the mirrors in my house because the view is much better when I'm standing in front of it.
Was the second image taken with the Speed Graphic?I posted this first image in the Large Format Gear thread and thought I would post a behind the scenes here.
I received this Pacemaker Speed Graphic from a camera club friend of mine who acquired some old gear. This thing was in bad shape and was going to be thrown away. So with some elbow grease and paint and, lube and ... here it is.
I shot this with a weird combination, because I have a soft spot for old stuff that has been set aside. The gear used was a CFV 100C (ok that is not the old stuff part), with Cambo Actus and a Nikkor H·C 75mm f/2.8 for Bronica medium format lens. Bronica made a bellows attachment with movement for their S cameras so maybe the lens had that taken into context when designed?? So I figure what the hack. I made a Bronica S mount adapter out of a spare Cambo Actus lens board and here we are.
Use what you have or can make right?
Oh yeah don't make fun of my light on the right. It works LOL

Insurance company? I wish! If that thing went over the edge, the University has a $10,000 deductible on coverage for loss of equipment.Well, you better not tell your insurance company ...![]()

Excellent measure - at least that way you'll go down together with your equipment ...Insurance company? I wish! If that thing went over the edge, the University has a $10,000 deductible on coverage for loss of equipment.
Having said that, I am going to pack some "insurance" in the form of a tether I can attach so that if I'm in a place where things are a bit tippy, at least I'll have a safety line to hold the tripod and camera.
Not quite. The tether is for the equipment. I go over the cliff! The main reason I have to wear that orange vest is so it's easier for them to find the body.Excellent measure - at least that way you'll go down together with your equipment ...![]()
