- Follow along as I photograph a woodworking plane as a still life using natural light from a workshop window. I'm manipulating the depth of field using view camera movements, tilt and swing.
As an experienced large format user, I thought that was a brilliant explanation and really nice picture.
Thanks @paulatterby7507
Really enjoyed this video! Great explanation and makes want to start large format. I love to shoot with film, 35mm and 6x6…
Large format helps you appreciate how user friendly the smaller formats are. Really all about the process. I like to compare it to making a loaf of bread by hand, compared to throwing the same ingredients into a bread machine. One is consistent, reliable. The other is a struggle but perhaps more satisfying in the end.
@@rjphotos definitely right! I am never really satisfied with what I get after I darkroom session…
Nice demonstration of some of the movements of a large format camera!
You have given an unusually thoughtful and cogent walk-through of the decision-making process we go through as we photograph and consider the means offered by the camera, in this case including LF movements. This kind of tutorial has enormous value for those coming new to LF photography, because the technical must always be put in service to the idea. As Ansel Adams was well-known for expressing in various ways, a sharp image of a fuzzy concept is not the aim.
Thanks for the comment @philipu150
Nice and helpful video, Russel! Thanks for that!
Very nice Russell. Always enjoy your videos.
It’s all about the plane of focus. Lol
Wonderful image and even better as a LR shot. The focus issue really helped me to see what is possible as I'm just starting out with 4x5
Fantastic explanations how you decided to make use of the movements. There is not much out there at RUclips in that direction. Would be great if you can do this with other scenes, too - e.g. a landscape.
I plan to following the comments I’ve had 👍🏻
Love that DARK CLOTH, Any info on it? Thanks in advance.
Strangely it’s branded Paramo and uses Nikwax biological analogy fabric. Strange because Paramo make outdoor clothing and have nothing to do with photography. See here. www.linhofstudio.com/products/Focusing-Dark-Cloths-LInhof-paramo-harrison/Paramo_Dark_Cloth
very inspiring, you should try this with a Sinar f2 or something else where the backplate can also be moved
The backplate on the Chamonix has tilt and swing. It doesn’t have rise and fall. I may do a demonstration of how you can enlarge foreground elements with rear tilt in a future episode.
A great video, but at 5:08 which 'plane' are you meaning? As there is one 'IN_CAMERA' and the axis of the standard.
I believe I’m talking about the diagonal that the subject is positioned on but in hindsight using a ‘plane’ as a subject is a little confusing.
Excuse me, where can I find second-hand film cameras?
