First off - Boaz the Goat, looks like one serious goat not to be messed with...lol, second - I too picked up a 4x5 camera in December, a Horseman 45FA with a couple of lenses. Personally I think the 4x5 camera is way above my pay grade of just being a hobbyist/enthusiast. But I am looking forward to giving it a try in the spring. You seem to be getting more comfortable reaching out beyond your comfort zone and I think that is key to developing your craft. I loved the LF portraits and look forward to seeing where you go with you 4x5. A hell of a camera by the way, I too was eyeing the same Chamonix camera before buying the Horseman, but couldn't find a used one, but like everything in life - two 45F-2's popped up on ebay the week after I got delivery of the Horseman. Happy shooting Sathya, I look forward to your next video.
Thanks Clarhett, Boaz is certainly a character :) Glad you are trying out 4x5, I had Horseman in the mix before deciding to go with Chamonix. Happy shooting in the Spring! Regarding going out of my comfort zone, yes as a medium I am still intimidated by large format photography but the rewards are quite sweet. I am looking forward to shooting more with it and try my hands on colour LF portraits with developing too. Will keep everyone in the loop :) Thank you for watching.
The foto of your Aunt was AWESOME. Outstanding Capture, i just got into medium format with a HASSY 501cm and LOVE IT. I have been looking at large format now, lololol. I am thinking more along the lines of the PYRAMID cams. Nice video here.
hey thanks for watching, in the large format section of the video, there are three images all taken with a large format camera. maybe you were skipping? also, what is a portrait lens?
