Any charts, graphs or equipment I ought to include in my LF field kit?
I'm getting started in Large format photography, the camera is in transit.
Shen Hao TF45II + 150mm f/5.6
There are things that will go in the big bag...
camera, lens, tripod etc
There are thigns I think I should have more accessible. I think this is the list i'm struggling. I always feel like i'm missing something...
light meter
exposure chart
depth of field chart
sun/moon calculator
Zone dial chart
marker
notepad
masking tape? (to mark film holders)
film holders
loupe
darkcloth (goes around my neck like a scarf)
measuring tape? (is this neccessary for percise movements?)
what do you carry with your field camera? Any tips and suggestions?
Depends on what you shoot and where you shoot , I would add a changing bag, extra box of film and an empty box to put sheets in when I shoot a lot. I know if you're going the whole "Zone" system route you'll resist this but it's been my experience that on any given day most of all of my shots will be (in Zone terms) N or N+1 and rarely go anywhere else with exposure. (I also find few modern emulsions work well with larger Zone departures from normal exposure.)
