Yeah, damn, it is ok on the phone, on a 27” it looks stupid. The JPEGs dates from a time where 800px was the max size to upload. I’ll check to replace with bigger.

Thanks John, no, digitally I’m a Canon and Fujifilm shooter.
This is shot on film.

Sorry, it was a rather feeble joke about the final portrait of the craftsman with his 'violin'.

Hahahahaha. I was thinking who would make that joke first.
When I made this série, the man didn’t have any finished violin in house, only a cello and a contrabass.

Yep, egg on my face. I read that too quickly and did not notice the reference to Tri-x 400 film. I recall reading that Ivo was interested in the Z6, perhaps in the gear section, somewhere?

It was a question about the EOS r. I ‘m one of the fools who doesn’t understand the negative hassle.
