Late reply: go soon, they have started clearing the rubble and cutting down the trees in places. They want to make it more suitable for tourists. I think they don't quite realize that the rubble and the trees is what makes it worth going all the way out there.Jim,
Lovely Images.

I love that shot, Jack. Is that the XVa you mean?This was one of the last LF frames I took. 8x10 using a Cooke triple at the 311 length using Vericolor Neg IIRC, facing West just after sunset. This was in Salton Sea, CA and where our next workshop is being held:
Well... With the loss of readyloads in 4x5, it's precisely the reason I said if I ever got back into shooting LF film, I would go for a 5x7 camera --- most lenses for 4x5 will cover 5x7, the cameras are still relatively light-weight and compact, yet you have 2x the negative area to play with. Of course 8x10 is another 2x of area over 5x7, but now you're talking much larger and heavier, and a whole new set of glassI find myself wishing that 8x10" didn't exist
We aren't that anal here and tend to try and keep things arranged in simple, yet reasonably organized fashions . And some folks do use their LF camera with the betterlight scanning back and even MF backs.By the way, I noticed at some point that the Large Format Camera forum is in the digital section, but most of the posts are about film?
Great, I prefer it loose like this too. The LF folk are all hanging out here anyway, not in the film forum, even if almost all of them are actually shooting film.We aren't that anal here and tend to try and keep things arranged in simple, yet reasonably organized fashions .
