Tried to scan my 4x5 as a 6x9cm (x2), didn't do justice to the trans
Anyways I have a huge headache about LF tripods ... ugh.
LF tripod is easy - just get one that's rated at at least 2x the total weight of your camera + back + lens. :bsmilie: Err...different people will have different opinions in this. Usually, have to consider all the different factors such as how, where, how high, how low etc.
Forward offered to lend you his use first mah.
Alternatively, a super steady option is a surveyor's tripod. Get the lighter wood ones from overseas.
Thanks for the lesson.
By the way, whos da guy with the long hair as a mini-dark cloth?
And the one who smokes that funny thing?
Anyways, the last shot on my Leica today. (That round mark is caused by bending the film due to improper loading!)

OOU! I remember that 'RAISE-GRAB' shot! :bsmilie:

The one who smokes the funny thing is from la-la land. :bsmilie:
Nor me lah!

But, I thought you were from HA HAR land?
Looks beautiful, but he says no overseas shipping.
USD34 for in-country shipping already, imagine the shipping price if delivered by FedEx ... :bigeyes:

Wonder what surveyor's tripod's go for in SG?
So far the only ones I've seen in use (currently) are the yellos metal Leica ones. :bigeyes:

A little nonsense now and then

Is it difficult to push away the five
robbers lodged in this human body?
Well if you want to know who these
five robbers are....follow this exciting LF thread.
Well, the difference between surveyor, survival
nor perseverance or either obstinancy is that
one is made from strong will, and the other
from strong won't.
------------------------------------------
Who is strong then?
I think he who can control his passions is,
for it was said that the one who is
wealthy is one who is satisfied with
his portion.

I've scanned the slides and had a look at the images and here they are.
This is the best image I've got:
A.
These 2 looks underexposed:
B.
C.
This is the size of the slides when compared to the scanner:
D.
In the meantime I'm looking for a way to upload a high resolution scan of the image =.=". These are 600dpi, I'll attempt a 4800dpi scan to see
if I can see the details clearly when I got the time as this takes a long time ...

Hi Komodo,
We're not pros, just enthusiasts in love with large format.
Yeah, there is quite a bit of difference using transparency materials as compared to negatives and digital. The feeling is almost palpable! We're a young group, in more ways than one, and all of us are learning from each other.
I've included a few very helpful links previously, but here they are again for your convenience:
CHEERS!
