I really enjoy your videos given the even pace and images. Great timing in viewing your video as I head out with the 5x7 Deardorff to the old quarter of Hanoi on a Sunday morning. Good tid bit on the bottom, rear bellows pull with extreme front rise. Thank you.

Thank you. Enjoy your outing.

Great video. I like both color and B&W shoots

[@Media.ExpertPhoto]

Thank you :)

I've added bubble levels on both front and rear standards to easily see when they are vertical (and back horizontal as well). My standards lock with a detent but have a bit of play. There bubbe levels are easy and fast way to make them spot on. They work also with extreme rise where I have to tilt camera base up due to limited rise.

Mine has levels too, I just have to remember to check it. Thanks for the info :)

Sir, I shot large format in the 80s...loved it and miss it. I'm 100% digital now. I do as you do and scout out locations and will hesitate not to drive 200 miles for one shot of a Texas building out in the middle of no where. The car that's in your shot...wow, my frustration as well. Here in Texas, vintage buildings in small towns typically will have a car or truck purposely parked in front. For years I thought it was by chance, but more and more I see it, I think it's intentional.

Thanks for watching :)

Another local here and if you haven’t been to DeLuz’s tiny, old post (maybe even defunct) office you may find it interesting too.

[@Media.ExpertPhoto]

Thanks, I will look into it

[@andrewb5345]

If the car owner was nice he/she’d may have moved it if you asked. Great video. Really enjoyed watching it. Thank you.

[@Media.ExpertPhoto]

That is probably true. Glad you enjoyed it
