I had a great day shooting yesterday. My new cambo 6x9 roll film back arrived to use with my 4x5 Intrepid camera :) ..My plan is to use colour roll film and 4x5 B&W sheet film as colour 4x5 sheet film is crazy expensive.
I persuaded model Shane to meet me in Birmingham and I took along my 4x5 camera and new 6x9 back (plus other backs and cameras),
Portrait shot with Kodak Ektar in direct light... loving the soft colour palette :)
4x5 Intrepid Camera (wooden view camera) + Rodenstock Grandagon 90mm f4.5 lens + Cambo 6x9 roll film back + 120 Kodak Ektar film
Super Happy! :) Can wait to use the 6x9 back for my usual shoots now.. and I might have to shoot more Ektar from these results / skin tones. Pleased.

I took this shot on Saturday to finish my roll of film after my model shoot in Digbeth. The afternoon sun came out and lit up the artwork just as I was composing the shot. If you follow me you'll know i'm not usually a building person but something about big 4x5 cameras, I just wanted to shoot detailed scenes as much as simple portraits.
I had the tripod fully extended so it was a bit hard to focus on tip toes but it came out OK. (I was trying to clear the parked cars and get a clear shot of the artwork).

Loving shooting colour roll film in the 6x9 film back..

Time for something different before we get back to portraits. This was shot during lockdown with what I thought was ISO 100 B&W film..
The setup was:
Sinar F2 4x5 monorail camera + Rodenstock Grandagon 90mm f4.5 + Horseman 6x7 120 Roll film back + Expired Cinestill 800T @100 (no filter)
I love the movements available with 4x5 cameras but I also appreciate the ease (& cost) of 120 colour film vs 4x5 film
I will do a YouTube video on this as it's quite a fun topic..
