Type 55 P/N 4x5 B&W Film Review

I have used this film in the past as well as Type 52 (ASA 400) and Type 54 (ASA 100) primarily to preview a lighting set-up. This is a great film from Polaroid, but I believe it is no longer made—by anyone (including "Impossible-Project") in the 4x5 format that works with a 545 back.

This film is used with a Polaroid 545 back where you insert individual packets in a 545 holder, raise the paper to shoot, lower it & move a handle to P (for Process), then remove the film, look at your watch (if you have one!) for a minute, then peel the paper apart. You will have a paper print as well as a black & white negative. (You can make it permanent in sodium sulfite, but that's a toxic chemical so learn before you use it!).

I would rate this a 5-star if I knew it was fresh film, but I honestly think this film is no longer made, and therefore the film sold here is probably out of date and may not work at all. Please comment if you know who currently makes instant films that fit the Polaroid 545 Holder.

Fancier Video Camera DSLR DV Tripod Fluid Pan Head Bowl by ePhotoInc FC370 Review

For the money, I don't know anywhere else you can get a decent, fluid head like this (in my experience manfrotto should stick to making stills equipment and leave video alone or at least drop their prices for it)

The fluid head that comes with this tripod (FC-03H) comes with some excellent features and super smooth drag for pans and tilts. For the price you pay, this head is superb, and if this review were for the head only, it would get 5 stars on value for money alone. To find out why only 3, read on.... If you have been looking at the FC-270A or 717A tripod systems (which come with the smaller FC-02H head), this is also a very good fluid head for smaller camcorders and DSLR videographers using entry level DSLRs with wide to short telephoto (14mm to 180mm) focal length lenses. However, the FC-02H will prove too light weight for people hoping to use the bigger DSLRs combined with any focal length prime lens of 200mm+. The FC-03H supplied with this FC-370 system is good for a load up to 3kg and has a more serious level of drag on the tilt axis so provides a great value option for those hoping to do good quality telephoto or macro videos.

People looking to use super serious, fast, telephoto primes are going to need to spend more money and perhaps get a 100mm bowl system, but this shouldn't be a problem if they've forked out for a 400mm f2.8 already...I digress

Unfortunately, the legs supplied with the FC-370 (and FC-270) are so poor, they render the entire system useless (hence the rating), unless you transfer the head to another set of legs. This is easily done because the bowl size of 75mm is a standard used across many professional brands.
But this seems frustrating when the tripod already comes with some legs that seem great on paper... they are described as aluminum, but are in fact aluminum connected by plastic components which make them flex around like your leg would around your ankle when the head is panned around. This is not what you are looking for in a tripod leg. The flexing renders shots unusable and is compounded by the ill fitting and poorly designed removable rubber feet used to cover the spikes on the end of each leg. The rubber feet wobble and flex too, making it look like the tripod itself is crumbling away as you shoot...really... it might as well be hand held..."I'm going for the Michael Bay look!"

Spikes and covering rubber feet are another standard among professional equipment, allowing you to use the tripod on rocky, uneven ground or mud (with spikes uncovered) and cover the spikes when shooting indoors. I know you get what you pay for but it seems that in trying to add these features at budget cost, they have in fact made the legs unusable rather than more versatile. Furthermore, the legs supplied with this tripod include an adjustable mid level spreader, another staple among professional equipment, but it is mostly plastic. I should guess that if this part does not break almost immediately, then one or all of the loose fastening pins, connecting it to the tripod legs, will fall out and be lost rendering the spreader even more useless than it is attached. You could perhaps use this as some sort of boomerang to fend off angry clients when they're demanding to know why all the videos you've made for them are all shaky.

In fact the legs which come with the FC-370A/FC-270A tripods (notice 'A' on end of model number) are shorter (by a few inches) and more basic on paper, lacking spikes and removable feet, but they actually contain more metal components (including an all metal mid level spreader, although not adjustable or removable) and are stiffer and more solid with no flexing. Unfortunately it seems impossible to find the FC-370A on Amazon at the moment, despite it being listed on chinafancier.com.

It is possible to find the FC-270A but this comes with the less heavy duty fluid head, leaving those wanting to do serious telephoto or macro work at a loss.

So in summary, again, great head useless legs.

So maybe if enough people start asking sellers to swap the legs for each purchase, then we might see the 'A' versions of these being listed on Amazon..

And one final thing.. and this is to do with a few other reviews I have seen of these tripods. A few people have slated them because the head keeps on coming loose in the bowl. I suspect this is due to some people's unfamiliarity with the professional tripod bowl system. A certain sweet spot of tightness is required on the main knob on the bowl to hold the head steady while still allowing you to easily loosen and reposition later. These are supposed to be removable heads after all. I should think that these people did not tighten enough.

Panasonic DMC-FZ100 FZ40 Limited Edition Lens & Filter Set Includes Wide Angle Lens, Macro Lens, 3.6X Telephoto Lens, 3 Piece Filter + Mini Tripod, Lens Cleaning Kit + Tube Adapter + More Review

The only issue I had was with the adapter when I used the wide angle lens. You could see the tube. I was contacted by their customer service and they gave me a credit for the lens. They were amazing and polite and addressed the issue I had.

The company is great, but in regards to using this kit with your camera, I would try to find a kit without the wide angle. If you zoom the telephoto lens just right, you can get the adapter out of view. The cleaning kit and filters worked just fine so far.
