So fun! Thanks for sharing that. I may have drooled a little, since I've been craving a medium-format camera for a long while now after trying a Mamiya 645-AFD (film) a while back.

I honestly think this guy's photos suck major balls

I concur his photos are mediocre compared to some of the stuff people I know shoot.

I'm not crazy about that type of lighting (it seems a little flat to me, hence the "green screen" look he mentions), but I admit I don't know a lot about sports photography. Do you have any recommendations on whose work to look at? I'm completely new to snowboarding, and I'm not really familiar with any of the snowboard photographers out there yet.

His angles and framing of the photos are just plain whack.
