Large Format Photography
Large Format Photography is a type of photography that uses large film or digital sensors, typically measuring 4x5 inches or larger. This format allows for exceptional detail and image quality, making it popular among professional photographers and artists. The larger size also provides greater control over depth of field and perspective, enabling unique creative possibilities.
Photographers often use large format cameras, which can be more complex and heavier than standard cameras. These cameras allow for movements, such as tilting and shifting, which help correct perspective distortions. Notable photographers like Ansel Adams have famously utilized large format photography to capture stunning landscapes with remarkable clarity.
