I'd bee keen on testing this.

I have agree with this. By making the competition so specific you're automatically decimating the number of people who can participate, such is the nature of shooting film. Were the criteria slightly less specific people could draw from photographs they've previously taken, and maybe the number...

A documetary about the 13 year old paparazzo Austin Visschedyk is on Channel 4 now, might be worth a watch.

I can see this happening.

I'm quite looking forward to using some of the 16x20 paper I've been hoarding.

So instead of getting an ETRS I ended up buying a Bronica SQ-A earlier on. Body, strap, WLF, 80mm, 150mm f/3.5, 2x120 backs, pro lens hood, hoyarex filter holders and 11 filters in a metal carry case for £400 including shipping. I'm happy.

I use this app myself, it's pretty useful and gives you the option to customise timings for different developer/film combinations. I got it when it was about 99p, at £4.99 I'd have to think quite hard...and then buy it anyway.

It wasn't so much the trasporting of the cameras, but more to do with handling whilst taking shots.

Dredging up an old thread, but I thought people might like to know that Dean Bennici is currently cutting more rolls of his Kodak Aerochrome colour infrared film in 120 format. He says he has about 50 rolls left so get in contact quickly. Here's his message. For the large format users amongst...

Horses for courses indeed. That sounds like you've got a very good deal, I'll keep an eye out for backs.

Incredible. This is why I love National Geographic.

I really enjoyed that, I really liked his other BBC documentary South Africa in pictures as well.

Similar story over at the NY Times. Shame I never got the chance to shoot any.

I think I'm going to invest in an ETRS. I had an RB67 and Pentax 67 previously, but found them a bit cumbersome when it came to handheld shooting so ended up selling.

Sam has been in the computer business for 25 years and is finally sick of the stress. He quits his job and buys 50 acres of land in Alabama to be as far away from humanity as possible. Sam sees the mailman once a week and gets groceries once a month. Otherwise, it's total peace and quiet...
