Dead plant. Testing my new Intrepid 4x5 mk5 camera. It seems to work quite well. My first large format camera was the first version of the Intrepid camera. It was a kickstarter project somewhere in 2015. That camera worked but had a few downsides. So in 2018 I upgraded to a more 'pro' camera a Toyo 45a field camera. A very nice camera but also with some cons. It was way heavier then the Intrepid. And when walking with a camera every kg counts. I sold the Toyo in 2019.
It's now 2026 and back to the Intrepid! The latest mk5 model is much more refined than the first model. And it's still very lightweight.

For this photo I used two speedlites. One direct (left side) and one with white umbrella (front/right side). With one flash I measured f/14 so I needed 5 flashes to get f/32. I forgot to take the bellow draw (0.6 stop) in the calculation so I developed for 150 ISO.
