Hello Fellow Filmwasters!
« on: March 05, 2012, 03:22:50 PM »
Hello folks,

I'm a newbie here and just want to say hello to everyone.

Like quite a few fellow filmwasters here I've just got myself a Harman Titan pinhole camera, can't wait to using it! :D

Just a little bit of info about myself I'm orginally from Hong Kong and now working in the UK. I have started using 5x4" about a year ago and have to say it is my favourite format thus far. Current major LF kit is an old Speed Graphic + a 7" Aero Ektar. Hopefully will get my hands on a Chamonix very soon!

Hope you all have a nice start of the week!  :)

Welcome Kenny from a well satisfied Chamonix owner

Welcome Kenny!

You won't be the only one around here waiting for a Chamonix... Leon (the admin) is waiting to take delivery of his. When he gets it, I think we'll hear him screaming of joy from across the pond!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

Hey Leon, Yea I was on the waiting list of a 5x4 Chamonix, the payment has already been through so I'm expecting to receive it by the end of this month.  ;D

I'm very excited!

Welcome Kenny.

I'm a complete noobie to LF but hoping to devote some time late summer to getting to know my Wista a wee bit better. Seems like we have a budding LF section on FW.

Somehow, this Chamonix order thing is starting to feel like a day at the races ;)
