Silo City Medium Format Workshop 2017
Workshop Overview:
Join Capture Integration in partnership with Mark Maio as we host our exclusive Silo City Medium Format Workshop in Buffalo, New York! Our workshop will feature high level Capture One Software and XF Camera Body breakout sessions facilitated by leaders in the medium format and capture generation. These sessions will cater to photographers at every level of experience. If you are thinking about purchasing a new camera system now or in the near future, this will be a great opportunity to test our top tier products in the rustic environment of Silo City! Because this location is not generally open to the public, this will present a unique experience for you to engage with us and learn more about shooting with medium format and technical camera systems.
This picturesque scenery will offer various pallets of both color and textures to perfectly create images with one of our latest digital back camera systems from Phase One, Alpa, Cambo, and Leica. See first hand how the new Phase One XF camera systems will allow you to take control of Focus Stacking, HDR, and Hyper Focal calibration.
Additional Highlights:
- We will have access to shoot rare rusted pumps inside & around 6 acres of historic Buffalo grain elevators & the Francis G. Ward Pump Station… which is one of the largest water treatment facilities in the world.
- You will receive hands-on setup and instructions for a variety of digital camera systems, tripods and portable lighting systems.

Previous Year Experience Review from Mr. Micheal Reichmann:
“All the uniqueness and excitement of shooting in a slot canyon in the southwest, with the convenient location of Buffalo, New York. For anyone who is fascinated by urban decay and architectural monumentality, a weekend shooting at Silo City is not to be missed.”
