Made a lens plate today and "married" my new Large Vogtlander lens with my 20x20" Donchev camera.
(I have two original lens plates which came with the camera, but i hate to cut a hole in them........)The difference in age between he and she is huge.
The voigtlander was made in 1862 and the Donchev is made in 2011.
Lets call it a "modern" marriage
It looks just great on the ground glass and i definately want to make some work with this camera starting in 2012. So keep posted.
If you need any more info about the Donchev camera's, just have a look at Andy's weblog : http://donchev-cameras.blogspot.com/
When the going gets tough...What a wonderful manufacture, I just imagine the joy to see through the ground glass. Have a nice 2012 with your beauty. Cheers
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis is sensational! I got an idea... I'll make a hut for my children, cut a hole for a lens and have a camera as a bonus :-)

Can't wait to see images from this baby monster :-)
