A Guide to View Camera Movements

Here’s a quick guide on the Toyo site about How to Use View Camera Movements. This is a very simple little guide, but it should be helpful to anyone who hasn’t used a view camera before.

Photography Site of the Day – photo.net

Here’s another site that everyone should know about, photo.net.

There is a lot here. I am often reading the forums. One of these is the Leica and rangefinder forum.

Another is the large format forum.

Probably the most well-known aspect of the site is the photography gallery.

The Learning section has some great tutorial information.

One section that is perfect if you can’t think of self assignments is the monthly photo project in the community section. It gives a small project that you can do and post your results.
