SONY DSC by Nokton48, on Flickr



For telescopic location work (scaled down a bit!) the 500mm Schneider Tele-Xenar F5.5 in Compound Shutter. Been advised by my repairman not to use the cable release, it caused a jam he fixed it. Best to use it as is, I'll be trying. Same perspective very similar view to 1000mm F16 I'm keeping set up in the studio for long 8x10 work. It's heavy but hey it's sturdy to use.

Plaubel Peco Junior 100mm Bag Bellows Adjustable Viewing Unit by Nokton48, on Flickr

The lens is a 100mm Plaubel F3.9 Supracomar, it normally would be attached to a 9x12cm Avus folder. On the Peco Junior the circle is plenty big enough for full camera movements. The Adjustable Magnifer on the back, allows me to see right side brightly, or with a shift, left side brightly. Leitz Ball head attached to an early Leitz Tiltall, notice I JB Welded a Bubble level to help level the legs. I could hike for miles with this thing if I wanted to, folded up it's easy to carry around with one hand! A small padded bag for holders and backs, and I am set. I also have a custom made E Sony Digital APSC Back for this camera, which also works quite well in the field.
