A couple more from Ye Olde Shen Hao

[480sparky]

Spent a few hours this morning testing out a new lens for my 4x5. I snagged a Nikon 65mm f/4 earlier this week, so I headed down to the capital building to try it out.

I managed to get at least ONE good image, and maybe a second (once I get a change to scan it!)

Very nice!

Wow, that's sharp! How tricky is it to shoot straight up with a LF camera?

 

[480sparky]

Focusing is a bee-otch!

I also need to 180 my QR plate. I use a Manfrotto 410 geared head, which is designed to shoot straight down.

Nicely done!!!

Very cool and super sharp. That must have been tricky to invert that.
