[MF3D.FORUM:1527] Hello to Everyone

Hi There,
My name is Darcy Genest and have been taught the wonderful way of
photography from my good friend Sam Smith. As years went buy, I would shoot
realist 3d shots and eventually modified a Raymond Patent 4x5 camera and
converted it into stereo. It was when I saw how good the quality of Sam's
medium format pictures are, and I decided that this is the best format.
That is when I converted an old ensign wooden folder camera into a 120
format camera. I used 2 Isolette folders for parts to finish this camera
only to have bellow problems. The bellows are full of pin holes. It takes
very good pictures but lousy contrast. I will be making new bellows soon. I
still wanted a good 120 stereo camera so I joined a Yashica A and a Yashica
D together.This one turned out excellent. This Camera focuses through the
side and I still need to make a sports finder. It takes wonderful pictures
and has very good contrast.
Since my picture taking is not quite famous yet, I will have to keep my
day job as a Chef. I thank Sam for telling me about the group and I thank
you for letting me join the MF3D group. I am looking forward to hearing
from everyone.
Darcy
