Happy New Year to all, and I've got 2 crazy pinhole stories. The first is from 1998 when I was flying to Maine to attend the Maine Photographic Workshops. My carry on was the smallest piece in my luggage set. It held film [35mm and 4x5], my 4x5 Graflex [with "real" lenses and the 3 focal length

Yeah, I understand that, but what about half stops? Multiplying by half the square root of two doesn't work, because that's the same as sqr(.5), and is the reverse of mulitplying by sqr(2). John - Original Message - From: "Larry Fratkin" To: Sent: Friday, December 29, 2006 5:06 PM Subje

I didn't see it there. Where on the page is it? How does one calculate half stops? I tried adding 1/22 and 1/32, then dividing by 2, but i got f/26.07, not 1/27.25 like you got. I would like to make a dial calculator with half stops because most of my cameras have apertures that are not full st

Hi Joe, I've had the Zero 6x6 for over a year and have enjoyed it completely. It is well constructed and will serve you well. One of its strengths is that it uses medium format, 120mm film. This gives you the ability to make fairly large enlargements without having to go to 4x5 inch sheet f
