Large Format Film Photography Workshop on Friday 28 February at 13:00

It is time to live the dream: in this workshop you will learn how to use a large format film camera, a 4×5″ View Camera. This unique type of camera has been used for everything from press photography in the 1950’s to fine art landscapes, and it still in use today.

We will go over how to load film and use the camera, using the tilt-shift mechanisms of a view camera, and of course take some pictures. We will develop single sheets of film in trays in complete darkness, allowing each shot to be developed individually. At the end we will make contact prints of the negatives.  

Please note that material costs are slightly higher than usual, so I will ask for 25 euros for this

workshop. It is also likely to take 7-8 hours. We will begin at 13:00 as usual and try to finish by 21:00. Workshops take place at the lab at Cotheniusstr. 5, Berlin-Friedrichshain.
