u/Larix-24

Hi there,

I’m just curious what might be the best option for 300mm and maybe greater?

Seems most options are not very practical. Just wondering if any has any experience with longer lenses for field use?

Or would a regular 8x10 lens work?

For reference I’m shooting landscapes on a Chamonix 45n-2

Thanks

How difficult is it? Or should I just leave it to a professional?

I know it’s only ascetic, but it bugs me when I’m taking photos

I’m sick of these things! They are flimsy as hell and don’t do a good job of holding my negatives flat

Hi all,

I’ve been touring for over a decade and this has always been a bucket list thing of mine.

I’m turning 40 in the winter of 28 and hoping to do this as a birthday trip

Any tips, pointers or insights would be great!

Thanks

Hi there,

I have late model Pentax 67 w/ metered prism just CLAed by Eric Henderson (https://pentaxs.com/) with the 45mm f/4, 90mm f/2.8 and 200mm f/4 all SMC lenses

I’m thinking of selling because I don’t find myself shooting it enough since I got into 4x5

I was kind of thinking in the $2000 but I don’t know if that’s totally off base

Thanks!

Acquired a used Hummingbird, super stoked! But it has a low end fork (X-Fusion RC32 120mm)

Kind stuck between Fox 34, SID and Pike (not totally sure the difference in various models within each category)

I’m about 170lbs w/o riding gear

Any thoughts? Or should I just stick with what’s on there

Thanks!

Wanting to just take one for weight reasons. I feel like these all are great lenses, just struggling to decide.

I’m hoping to shoot a mix of Ilford Pan F and Fuji Velvia

Thanks
