Dear All, 
         Well "Introductions" were asked for and here is one, although I
can't claim it will interest anyone.
I work in the "Computer Rat Race" as a techie and often wish I didn't as I
find it to be "stress city". 

Photography is my hobby and potential "parachute" if things go "pear
shaped". I'm currently 43 (and accelerating). I have been into photography
since I was first handed an early Praktica (I think it was a "B") when I was
about 8. 

My current kit ranges through old and battered 35mm, old and battered medium
format (Mamiya C330s) up to Wista DX III 5x4 with mostly Schneider lenses &
Lee filters. I proof with Polaroid and then use DDS (as I find quickloads
comparatively expensive). 

I've just picked up a very cosmetically challenged Linhoff 6x9 RFH and am
looking out for a similar 6x12. I do my own processing / printing with a
CPA2 processor / Devere enlarger combination. I know I have a vast amount to
learn about large format and am happy to have found such a friendly and
helpful list.

I live in the south of "ye olde England".

Regards to all.

Sarah
