I'd taken a Manfrotto micro positioning plate and modified it to become a slider for my Linhof 612 PC II. It allows 120mm lateral shift left and right from the centre starting position. My idea was to shoot one shot and then slide it horizontally 120mm to one side and take a second shot and then stitch them together in Photoshop, therefore enabling me to go beyond the 6 x 12cm format. With the end result being closer to 6 x 17 to 6 x 24. However it basically means you have to

Paddleboarding, Sandringham © 2021 Guy Little One of my many Covid walks around the bay. I'd ordered a film carrier to scan with from Andrew Clifford at the essential film carrier. A well made project, its just slow changing over formats and I might end up having 3, 1 for 6x6, 6x12 and 5x4.

My Hasselblad ArcBody © Guy Little 2021. My first test shot on Ilford FP4 120 on my Hasselblad ArcBody with the 45mm lens. © Guy Little 2021. Happy with my first test, I was worried that the Lee 100 filter holder if it had too many 100 square filter slots would actually cause vignetting, clearly not a problem on the 45mm however I need to check this on the 35mm.

Listerfield Landscape 5x4 test shots, 2021 © Guy Little My first test shots above at Listerfield processed in the Mod54. After I had modified my Linhof Master Technica 2000 5x4 I took it out for a few test drives and shot a whole pile of 5x4. I can still only load up and process 4 at a time in the spiral as more practice is needed.

After I had modified my Linhof Master Technica 2000 5x4 I took it out for a few test drives and shot a whole pile of 5x4. Made a trip to Listerfield lake and shot 4 sheets. The biggest issue has been getting used to the MOD 54 I bought which enables you to process 6 sheets of 5x4 in a Patterson tank. Its a load that takes a bit of practice. Currently I can confidently do 4 at a time, or 8 at time if I run two tanks at the same time. I managed to get a GraLab timer from the U
