And check out my online course all about light metering for film photography: https://www.nickcarverphoto.com/metering Nestled in the desert of Southern California you'll find the Mojave Road - a 138-mile trail that cuts completely through the Mojave National Preserve. This trail, which originally served as a route for early pioneers, now remains largely unchanged as a 4x4 road that takes riders on a tour through one of the most beautiful examples of open desert you'll find in the United States. Recently I ventured out onto this road for some good old-fashioned analog photography and solo-camping. This video is the result of my 2 days on the Mojave Road photographing cinder cones with my 6x17 panoramic film camera. The camera I use in this trip is a Shen Hao TFC 617-A panoramic view camera. This camera is my absolute favorite tool for landscape photography and it, along with my assortment of Nikkor and Schneider lenses, has made it possible for me to create photos that I am truly proud to share. I used 3 different film stocks on this trip: Kodak Portra 160, Fuji Velvia 100, and Ilford Delta Professional 100. I also often use filters made by Lee. Tripod by Gitzo and tripod head by Really Right Stuff (BH-55 LR). The light meter you see me using is a Pentax Digital Spot Meter, same as what Ansel Adams used. The tent I used on this trip is an ARB Room With Floor for the ARB 2000 Awning. I made a video review for each of these products which can be found at the following links: ARB Awning:    • Camping Essentials: ARB Awning   ARB Room with Floor:    • Camping Essentials: ARB Awning Enclosed Room   Please visit my website for more videos, tips, how-to's, online photography courses, and more!
