2006-05-05: Parking Garage (Pink Cow)

Hehe, I'll need to get used to the parallax offset of the rangefinder	Uh oh, hello light leaks	A hint of light leaks at the top left...	Great sharpness, and handles itself well in low light
Ha ha, ricer (100% crop of previous frame - you can read the license plate!) (2c)	First Light in the Pink Cow (with impressive resolution)

2006-04-01: Unexpected Recompense

A well-stocked fridge

2006-03-26: Handheld 4x5 Project

Scotch tape set up for lens collimation	Folds up pretty compactly too	Isn't she pretty? (OK, no, not really) (2c)	All done!
The rangefinder linkage connecting it to the focusing mechanism	Rangefinder epoxied on and corner of adapter sanded to make it easier to put your face up to it	The old door now serves as a wall to close off that end of the camera	Clamped and letting the epoxy cure
Epoxying the adapter to the camera	Scotch tape as 'ground glass'	Aligning the adapter	Film holder has even more play
Film holder installed and locked	Film Holder mode -- second set of light traps installed	One end has a little bit of play	Closeup of Graflok jaws holding in Grafmatic
Jaws closed	Grafmatic holder installed, jaws still open	Top view, with Graflok jaws open	The completed adapter (bottom view)
I'll probably expand the hole left and right just to be safe (Image dehanced to show detail)	Light trap had to be cut down shorter than I planned due to the Grafmatic's bevelled end	Grafmatic slides in smoothly	Applying epoxy
A nice fit	Test-fitting the light traps	Test-fitting the adapter	The final adapter measured and marked
There, that looks better	Cleaner, straighter cuts this time around	The second attempt goes better. Control comes with practice	Approximation of assembly
Light traps cut out, everything cleaned up and sanded	The final shape cut out	But that's rectangular enough for me	I don't play the jigsaw very well yet
Drilling the starting hole for the jigsaw blade	Marking out the lines for the real one	Cardboard prototype for 4x5 back adapter	Still much smaller than a view camera
