Winter came, girls have no time for photos, and my Super 23 is back in service for shutter cleaning. Share some 4x5" pictures, and I'll crave for Linhof Master Technika

A Tech V isn't too shabby. Save some money for lens, film, etc.

here's some hand held shots with a speedgraphic and strobo-flash. I can't wait to go back to another one of these vintage/classic races, I've got more grafmatic holders now :-D

These are all hand held ... which is actually the way I enjoy using my Crown Graphic the most!

Shot with a Speed Graphic and Aero Ektar. Sadly it's been in dry dock for the last few months, the rangefinder won't hold an alignment anymore for some reason. Hoping to pick up a replacement RF for cheap sometime in the near future, but also have my eye out for a 4x5 Graflex SLR.

street shooting with 4x5...

I keep coming back to look at Ethics Gradient's photos- a speed graphic for street photography! I have tried with my speed, but I need to use 25p flash bulbs and f22 to get anything useable.

Impressive photos, sir!

I can sympathize with your craving. Here is an old shot taken with a Super Technika IV hand held. These babies have rangefinders for a reason!

I have only one (150mm Symmar) cammed lens for my Technika IV. I have recently cammed a lens for my a Technika 70, and I plan to get more lenses working for it. Basically what you need to do is get an old cam for your focal length on ebay and then file it down to match your lens. It is a slow process but it is not that hard to do. Once I get round to it I will start a thread explaining what I did. If you are lucky you could get a cam that already comes close to matching your lens.

shooting handheld with a Technika is great! i picked up a CZJ 135mm F4.5 and a separate 135mm cam. My tests for distances, GG focus and RF focus are all as good as could be expected. with wider lenses it's easier to get close with different cams and lenses.

i have a 150mm Symmar-S and a non-matched cam that are also as close to be good enough in my tests, but i'm letting htat lens go. a 135, 150 anf 185 are all to close to each other for me. 135mm for handheld and 180mm for tripod portraits.

Old stuff, poor scans from prints, Pacemaker Crown Graphic first two are flashbulb, all are hand held. I have some up in the bathroom sitting in Rodinal, my first try at stand development.

Now that was interesting. Ambient temp 64f. Stand developed for 90 minutes. One neg looks underexposed, one got stuck in the wrong grove, the other 4 look fine. Combi-Plan tank. I will scan them tomorrow and see what happened.

Look forward to seeing them. I tried some Adox 100 in Rodinal 1:100, 1 hour, and had some less than fun over development alone roof lines of the building. Nice tonality and shadow detail though.
