But I do claim to being able to getting much closer to the large format quality without having to lug around the cameras that I used to own which included the a Horseman 4X5 and prior to that a Linhof Kolor Kardon. As my main interest is in street photog I wanted a material that allows me to print 111X14 from all or part of a neg and at least approach the larger formats in resolution and grain lack. The 17 photos I show on my site listed below are of course a poor substitute for the same prints hanging on the wall in 11X14 size. I would be first to admit that if the prints on the below site were taken with a linhof 4X5, one could indeed tell the difference but how does one get a group of kids playing on the beach stand still for the linhof?
