[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
