James warns however that while you can get a kit cheap, just make sure to get the GX680iii, easier to find batteries.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 34 - Authorised for Field Use\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/37135623301\/in\/album-72157661488973661\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4345\/37135623301_349424e9e1_b.jpg\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 34 - Authorised for Field Use\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Camera Specs<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make: Fujifilm<\/li>\n<li>Model: GX680iii<\/li>\n<li>Type: Single Lens Reflex<\/li>\n<li>Format: Medium Format (120\/220), 6&#215;8<\/li>\n<li>Lens: Interchangeable<\/li>\n<li>Year of Manufacture: 1997-2010<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"CCR - Review 7 - Fuji GX680iii\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/16939714071\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7596\/16939714071_4c8301ee0b_b.jpg\" alt=\"CCR - Review 7 - Fuji GX680iii\" width=\"1024\" height=\"743\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Halton Region Museum\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jamesl99\/37566127162\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4464\/37566127162_bfa3982e73_b.jpg\" alt=\"Halton Region Museum\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Halton Region Museum\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jamesl99\/36887680404\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4511\/36887680404_3ca1dfda24_b.jpg\" alt=\"Halton Region Museum\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Monorail LF in the Field<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen it comes to Large Format shooting in the field there are some cameras that are designed to do this, 4&#215;5 Field Cameras or Press Cameras can be easily folded up and transported around without too much effort. That being said, once you get into 8&#215;10 unless you drop the cash on an 8&#215;10 field camera you&#8217;re stuck with a monorail. Now, there&#8217;s nothing wrong with a monorail camera it&#8217;s just they&#8217;re more aimed at studio shooting. However, Mike &amp; Donna have gone just that little bit extra to ensure that the Cambo Legend is easier taken out than most, by using a little red collapsible wagon.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Another Big One\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/36911432116\/in\/album-72157688195829216\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4387\/36911432116_448ed54ae6_b.jpg\" alt=\"Another Big One\" width=\"714\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>SPUR of the Moment<\/strong><br \/>\nFor those who have never heard of SPUR HRX, don&#8217;t worry too much, it wasn&#8217;t until Mike let us in on this great developer out of Germany that the gang took to try it out. According to the information on the SPUR website, the developer is primarily optimized in view of achieving the highest possible fineness of grain. SPUR HRX delivers high sharpness and outstanding detail contrast. Another advantage of HRX is its superbly sophisticated tonality due to the ideal, linear gradation curve gradient preventing dull or flat results.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 34 - Authorised for Field Use\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/37135609751\/in\/dateposted-public\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4428\/37135609751_6622ec7306_b.jpg\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 34 - Authorised for Field Use\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Some examples that the crew has shot and developed with SPUR HRX!<br \/>\n<a title=\"CCR Review 68 - Bronica GS-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/35615032253\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.staticflickr.com\/4429\/35615032253_bb9533d653_b.jpg\" alt=\"CCR Review 68 - Bronica GS-1\" width=\"1024\" height=\"787\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"TFSM - Winter '17\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/32785194421\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2137\/32785194421_c2d551c184_b.jpg\" alt=\"TFSM - Winter '17\" width=\"1024\" height=\"722\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Solitaire\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/photosblia\/32666761364\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2910\/32666761364_10c711000f_b.jpg\" alt=\"Solitaire\" width=\"1024\" height=\"697\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Embrace The Imperfections\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/photosblia\/32992525151\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/648\/32992525151_e42a389088_b.jpg\" alt=\"Embrace The Imperfections\" width=\"1024\" height=\"973\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Looking for a good spot to get your gear and material fix check out <a href=\"http:\/\/burlingtoncamera.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Burlington Camera (Burlington, ON)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.downtowncamera.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Downtown Camera (Toronto, ON)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmplus.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Film Plus (Toronto, ON)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/bellarte.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Belle Arte Camera (Hamilton, ON)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/guelph.fotosource.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pond&#8217;s FotoSource (Guleph, ON)<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/fotoart.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Foto Art Camera (Owen Sound, ON)<\/a>.
