Used Gear Starter Guide - Large Format Friday

Shooting a photographic format that dates back to the beginning of photography is a huge change of pace from the lifestyle many have become accustomed to in the 21st century. Most of the tools for this type of photography aren’t available new, and even the ones that are made brand new take more time than the buy now, get it now culture trains us for. That’s why today, I’m going to talk about the used equipment aspect of large format photography. For some of us, used equipment is almost every part of our large format kit, sometimes including the film! And if you’re one of the many folks out there watching that are still assembling a large format kit or haven’t yet begun the process, this can be one of the most frustrating barriers to entry into LF. My goal is to help you navigate the used market using what I’ve learned over the years. ------------------------------------------------------- Ethan Moses' Shutter Tester:    • DIY Arduino Camera Shutter Speed Tester.  ...   Large Format Photography Forum: https://www.largeformatphotography.in...
