[Cameramakers] Aerial - Pacific Optical again
Just went through the archives and from 2000 I see that Gene Johnson wrestled with the giant Pacific Optical 3" F4.5 lens. Gene, did you ever make the camera? I'm building my second with this lens. Did a shooting prototype with the original shutter (modified to manual) and am now working on version two with conventional Ilex shutter in a steel frame. I've learned a lot and would be happy to share information. ___ Cameramakers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rmp.opusis.com/mailman/listinfo/cameramakers

(http://wind.winona.edu/~stafford/s) Going through the Big Bin I found one just like it that I mocked up with a rise and falling front mount. Next Winter I think I'll build it for real. The traditional 47mm SA seems to have build problems - inconsistency. Mine is the F5.6 and it's not as contasty as I'd like, but I'm comparing it to a couple of phenonemal lenses. How we spoil ourselves. :) I'm working on a very new WA camera right now. All glass and stainless. At this time I'm in dire need of a machinist. Bummer. ___ Cameramakers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rmp.opusis.com/mailman/listinfo/cameramakers
Re: [Cameramakers] 4x5 Plans
Dear Camera Makers, Does anyone have plans for rosewood and brass 4 x 5 camera in the style of those made by Louis Gandolfi and sons (UK)? In the absence of plans, a set of detailed images would be of great interest. A few years ago, I made a metal 4 x 5 " camera, with helical focusing mount and fitted with a Schneider 47mm Super Angulon which almost covers the 4 x 5 format. It has been one of the most useful cameras I have ever had for technical and pictorial photography.

[Cameramakers] View Camera Magazine
I have heard that 'View Camera' currently has an article on Nikon large format lens. I have a couple of them and a couple of Apo Nikkors for future projects. I drove the 90 miles to the nearest Barnes&Noble only to find they no longer stock the magazine. Is there any way to purchase a single copy on line? Would anyone like to sell me their copy, or email me a copy of the article? Thanks, Beau schwarz [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Tired of spam?
