I've seen several stories about this guy and his 'amazing camera' in the
past. I really don't understand what makes his work so special. As far as
I can tell, he's using a regular large format camera (which he admittedly
built himself), scanning the result at high resolution, then having Lightjet
(or some other process) prints made.

So again, what's so special? Is the lens he uses particularly
high-resolution? Has he built a special scanner for this project? What
does "slowly processed by hand" mean? He develops his own film? That would
be truly shocking indeed.
