Larger negatives yield stunning prints with intricate details, surpassing the capabilities of 35mm format. Throughout this course, participants will get plenty of hands-on experience working with a 4x5 camera, loading film into 4x5 film holders, processing 4x5 sheet film, and producing contact prints in our community darkroom. Create beautiful portraits in the FCAC lighting studio while utilizing basic camera functions covered in the class, including tilts and swings, which help control perspective and focus.
