Blended learning task No.12




Sinar View cameras

View Camera  

Using the information already covered in the View camera session use your notes to produce further research into view cameras.  Use the templates that have been attached in the recent email to compile your work. Work to produce 2 x A3 pages in the usual format… 1 x page with a selection of images and your initial thoughts based on what you know of view cameras, pre-conceptions and prior knowledge of the cameras (You’ve studied a number of photographers that use these cameras already, so should be able to list these photographers). Your images could include different types of view cameras and their sizes (Format), famous photographer using view cameras, examples of the effects that a view camera has on images… Tilt Shift, converging verticals, depth of field (Scheimpflug) and the film edge (Rebate) detail that is often included in the image.

The 2nd page should feature a Main image – (Camera, someone with a camera or perhaps a cut-away diagram or illustration) with as much information you can gather through your research including some details regarding the images you collect that illustrate the cameras characteristics and properties.

Use the prompts here to generate your written content when researching.

Use the Dave Thompson’s A3 template with the columns and prompts already formatted (Document 310) ask him to email it to you.
