THE VIEWFINDER MULTIMEDIA COMPANY

Photography is my profession, my passion and quite probably my obsession. I have spent most of my life looking at the world through a viewfinder either as a cameraman or photographer.

I work with both film and digital cameras. For digital photography I have a comprehensive range of lenses offering a range of focal lengths from 24mm F2.8 wide angle to 900mm F4 telephoto. My photography is supported by excellent Photoshop skills allowing me to offer an image editing and manipulation service

For film I use a variety of formats; 35mm and 35mm panoramic, 6x7, 6x9, 6x12cm medium format and 5x4 inch Large format. I also can provide digital files for material originated on film.

I still prefer using film for some of my photographic work especially with my Horseman FA45 (pictured opposite) - I could not resist giving it some sexy lighting! The advantages of a camera with movements and the quality of the images is too great to abandon. If the time came to move completely digital it would only be with the addition of a digital back for the FA45.

Panoramic Photography

Another reason to use film is to take panoramic photographs. My Hasselblad Xpan uses 35mm film to take panoramic 24mm x 65mm images. I can also produce 6x12cm panoramic medium format negetives or positives using a roll film back for my Horseman FA45

One of my pet hates is stitched together "panoramic" pictures using software to combine several different photographs. To my eyes they just look plain wrong and distorted having several different sets of perspectives. They simply are not a convincing substitute for the real thing.
