Thanks glad you liked them. I use a Cambo Wide and a Toyo VX-125b, both fairly specialized and possibly not a good first large format camera, but definitely great cameras if they seem appropriate to your needs.
First portrait with the 4x5. Calumet cc-400 with front and rear tilt. On Ilford HP5+ at iso 800 in Rodinal 1:50 for 25 minutes. Fujinon 250mm f5.6 SF lens at f8 with yellow disk.
My (new to me) n90 is acting up with an f-- error. Pressing the dof preview button will fix it momentarily or induce it. Ordered an n90s since KEH won't take the N90 back after 14 days.
I'm now officially into color development at home! This is Fuji Reala 100, shot with Pentax 67II and developed with the Tetenal C-41 kit. The results are far better than I had expected.

Pics show up fine for me. Very, very nice result, Makten.
Yeah, I managed to understand that I should use the BBCode. And thanks! The film was expired since 2003 but kept in the freezer. A bit underdeveloped and/or underexposed, but now I have a fresh roll of the new Portra 400 in the camera. I developed an old Portra 400VC the other day that came out like complete crap, but it was outdated and probably not kept freezed.
The only difficulty with developing C-41 seems to be the temperature. If you can hold the developer at 37-39 degrees Celsius for ~3-3.5 minutes, you should do fine with fresh film. The C-41 process is standardized, so any film at its native speed is developed at the same time, which is very nice. You can of course push or pull, if you want to.
