Great job,Brad. My very first 4x5 shot, 40 years ago was very similar to yours.... it took me 2 years to figure outwhat i did right. After shooting 35mm and 120 for work. Retired, i shoot most exclusively 4x5 and 8x10. Come up north her some time and shoot in the great Northwest! I only need to come down to the lands of red rocks and desert when i get tired of alpine mountains , ocean and anything green.😮
I print a 11x14 in my darkroom from the negative and then shoot it with my digital Canon 5d camera. And then put it on my video. Thanks for asking and thank you for watching my videos!!
. Oh no, Brad. You need to scan on a great big expensive scanner like I have and skip the magic and dance of printing in the dark! NOT! No wonder you can afford to shoot so much film😂!
This sounds like a 6th grade book report, which is what quite a few people enjoy. Use the camera tilt for full dof rather than a diffraction heavy tiny aperture. Use an ND filter to obtain the long exposure. A polarizer would improve tone quality. Otherwise, happy post card.
Duh. Obviously. Someone's always an expert and stating their opinion. He's doing just fine. Refraction is not that noticeable, if at all. I do use tilt and shift if really needed, but find stops at 32, 45, 64 or even 90 and 128, fun and fit my pre visualization. Most of the time, surprisingly. The nit picky technologists take the fun and art out of it. Youd be hard pressed to be able to tell the difference between my Ektar 153mm and my Fujinon 150 f/5,6 . Use what you can and enjoy! I love Brad's use of lens cap shutter to bi pass a broken one.... saves money getting it fixed to buy more film.😅

Thanks!! I want to travel up to the Northwest and do some photography up there. Soon!!
Nice image
Thanks!!
I really enjoyed your video! It was nice to see you shoot from start to finish!
Thanks!!
NIce image especially the 90mm
Thanks!! I like that one also.
As always, I enjoyed your video. Question - pertaining to making prints, do you print from the sheet film, or scan to digital?

Some people like the darkroom and some people don't. I have always like it and find it relaxing.

Thanks for the comment! It's all about the art.
Thanks for your comment, I have a polarizer filter I used today to see the difference between it and the red filter.
