Finely Focused: Mechanics and Creativity in Large Format Photography CD-ROM book.
Camera Repair in the Field with Richard Ritter. 59-minute DVD.
The Richard Ritter Ultra-Large Format Camera Owner’s Manual. 50-minute DVD. Those interested in Richard’s 8x10 camera may want to check this out.
Film Test Kit. All you need to calibrate your film, developer, camera, and proofing to produce perfect negatives. Includes “the Simplified Zone System” that explains a radically simple way to expose film accurately. If you bought Finely Focused, it includes everything in the Film Test Kit. You do not need both.
Fine Focus Workshops. A brief description of Richard Ritter’s and Bruce Barlow’s weekend workshops in southern Vermont and New Hampshire.
Gallery. Some favorite images, so that you understand Bruce Barlow’s predispositions and biases. Crummy scans from a cheap scanner, they’re good enough for now. Bruce Barlow barely understands how to open Photoshop, no less use it, and owns a $99 five-year-old scanner.
