I especially hate using the 4×5 kits that come from RMIT. They are just a huge mess. And I mean huge quite literally. The case that the 4×5 camera comes in is made of STEEL (WHY?!?!?!?!?!) and it is about the size of a large suitcase. On top of that weight, the steel case must be rolled around on a trolley that comes with it. Otherwise, your fingers will be cut off by the uncomfortable handle that can be used to lift the case (that is, assuming you can even use your fingers after your arms have fallen off because of the immense weight of the case).

Also, ALL NECESSARY 4X5-RELATED EQUIPMENT IN AUSTRALIA IS EXPENSIVE. Film costs about $5000000000 and the processing for the film costs another $9000000000000.

With that said, I am about to embark on a quest to shoot the Conder Tower down in the Docklands. It will be the most unexciting photographic venture in my entire life.
