¿Someone is trying to tell us that you have to be a total dip-stick to want to use a Large format camera?

Convert your LF to MF by attaching a MF DB to it!

Bah, all the links point to dilettantes with their tiny film, fancy schmancy movements, and fiddly focusing. This is how real men photograph.

Man, I have not laughed so much in ages! That is a brilliant little video! What a dramatic buildup to a totally unexpected climax.

The difficulty of LF is way overblown, IMO.

My first 4x5 shot was quicker and easier than setting up and focusing my (non-live-view) Canon DSLR in the studio.  Probably because on my Horseman monorail, I can actually see wtf I'm doing! :)

Great video, good find!

WOW this guy does it for the art....... definitely not a gear head looking at his rig. Respect to him!

I wonder what he Mk2 of that camera would look like? A geared focus rail might help IMO. :D

Agreed. The cameras in the videos are not designed or even suitable for portraiture. This is, and I have one :)
