After becoming re-familiar with the 5x4 within recent practical lesson's I decided to set up the 5x4 camera, without the immediate help of any tutors.
Instead of taking the initial plunge and heading out into the wilderness straight away, I practised with the equipment and aimed to achieve a perfect exposure of the view from the studio window.
Below are my scanned negatives of the two same view from the window taken at slightly different exposures.
It is common to use a bracketing method whist indulging with film based photography, this is to ensure that you achieve a perfectly exposed negative.
Due to today's photographic market and the progressive rise of digital photography products, film is becoming more and more antique like. Extra pressure is more apparent to capture a film based image correctly within fewer frames due to the extra expense for film and developing costs.
