Rear-view Camera: REAR GUARD, a body of troops detailed to protect the rear of a marching column. Modern developments in warfare have largely rendered obsolete the classic military conception of the rear guard. In the more leisurely warfare of the 18th and 19th centuries the rear guard was a well defined disposition of troops retreating before an enemy or moving through dangerous territory. It was organized like an advance guard reversed, consisting, from front to rear, of reserve, support, rear party, rear point, rear cavalry. From the reserve to the point the units decreased in size.
The best rear-view Camera for the job, all things considered, is a 4x5 view rear-view camera, but many photographers prefer the convenience of working with a 4 x 5 press rear-view Camera for most of their setups, using a view rear-view Camera only where the corrections! or the long bellows are called for. There was a time when the 8 x 10 was the standard instrument for industrial photos,! but that's no longer the case. The 8 x 10 speeds production of prints in the darkroom, but slows production of negatives on the job. In those cases where a big production of prints is necessary, the method used by some large companies is to shoot the picture on 4 x 5 anyway, have one perfect enlargement made, then copy the enlargement on 8 x 10 film and use the copy negative for making as many contact prints as are required.
Dealers in building materials and manufacturers of home appliances will become customers for your pictures later,for advertising purposes, but not until you've progressed to the point where your work is appearing in the magazines and the home sections of newspapers. Then these buyers will come to you and pay you excellent rates. For that reason, keep the magazines in mind, and whenever you photograph a particularly striking home, let the editors see your pictures. Not only will the magazines add nobly to your income, but they'll give you also the best advertising you can get when they print your pictures.
Your equipment for this work must meet certain rigid standards but will not be as expensive as you might think. Your entire outfit can be bought for about the price of a good miniature. The view rear-view Camera is absolutely a must. No other rear-view Camera will do the job as well. The prime advantage of the view rear-view Camera for architectural work is its ability, through use of the rising front, and other movements, to make vertical lines register as parallels on the negative, rather than converging as they recede upward from the rear-view Camera level, the way they really do as seen by the eye. The various swings and tilts of the view rear-view Camera are a great convenience. |
