Early Experiements Many, many years ago I experimented with uprating HP5, I was a student and it fitted the look I was after at the time.

A chronic case of GAS To cut a long story short. In a previous life, i.e. before kids, I suffered a chronic case of GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) and ended up as the proud owner of a Richard Ritter 7x17” Ultra Large Format View Camera.

The combination of huge negatives, old school contact printing and expensive em...
