Large format photography forum

First of all, you should understand that large format and SLR are film and digital (of course, there are also films). The most important thing is that their scenes are different. Generally, there are several frames in a large format, 4*5, 5*7, 8* 10. 12*20, representing inches. This frame is film in the general sense. SLR is generally 135, and the larger one is 120. 135. The film size is only 2.4*3.6 cm, which means that the photosensitive area of large format is dozens of times that of 135. Such a large photosensitive area brings unparalleled image quality, fine particles and soft texture, and digital cameras are far from achieving such amazing image quality. Because the single chip area of CCD is the largest, it can only catch up with the medium format.

The second difference. You mentioned axis shift. That's right, the large format is basically axial shift, which is essentially the same as the axial shift lens of digital SLR. The depth of field and perspective effect are controlled by adjusting the focal plane of the lens. However, they are different in structure. The former adopts pure manual guide rail and leather cavity, while the latter adopts highly electronic mechanical parts.

Good brands of large format cameras are Lin, Schneider, Shana, and Rodenstein.

Of course, large format is good, but it is not affordable for ordinary people to burn. A shot usually costs tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, which is rare. After all, there are few people playing here.
