Hi everyone,
My name is Nathan and I've finally gotten around to signing up after being put onto this forum a while back by Walter.
I was introduced to LF a few years ago at TAFE (Ultimo Sydney), and soon after started putting together my own kit. I think that the view camera appealed to me with it's simplicity, control and 'exactness' in a way which digital and other formats just can't match. That and the fact that i'm an engineer made it a perfect fit for me.
I currently own (and love!) a Shen Hao 45IIA, and use 75/4.5 and 135/5.6 lenses with it. I almost exclusively shoot landscapes and prefer to use B&W film over colour largely due to the cost per sheet and the fact that I can develop myself without having to pay a lab ridiculous prices to do it for me. I currently scan the negs but have lately been giving thought to setting up a small darkroom capable of printing to 16x20's. See how things go I suppose.
Looking forward to getting to know you all.
