Gelatin-silver photograph on Ultrafine Silver Eagle VC FB photographic paper, image size 16.3cm X 21.5cm, from a 4x5 Kodak Tmax 400 negative exposed in a Tachihara 45GF field view camera fitted with a Nikkor-W 210mm f5.6 lens.
The Tachihara 45GF is a very nice lightweight folding field camera but it doesn't have the precision and rigidity to tackle a demanding architectural subject like this. I should have used my Toyo 45G monorail camera to get those metal corrugations dead vertical. But the Toyo and its big aluminium carry case are heavy and cumbersome and easy to leave in the studio.
