Here is another video of this that I’ve just come across.

Looks pretty cool, but the images are terrible!
There must be light leaks in those bellows of his.
You’d get better results from an Olympus RC35 film camera, that you could stick in your pocket afterwards.
Bigger ain’t necessarily better, judging by those images.
Nice try, but no cigar I’m afraid :(

rogOK, Rog, you have a point, re light leaks (or flare). Seems to be a work in progress though and I’m sure he’ll nail (or rather tape) it.
Full marks for trying. One can’t even begin to compare tonality when looking at prints from 35mm vs. 17×36″ either,
Ken Rockwell’s esteemed opinion of that nice Oly, or not :wink: .
The shallow DOF and perspective control possibilities are also probably quite unique for this kind of format.Plug: I’m selling my 2 foot long 4×5″ camera :) See classifieds here for skyscraper camera. THANKS :)
