This is a self-portrait, shot with a Phase 1 XF and IQ3-100 back. The lens is my favorite, an SK 120mm. For lighting, I think I had five lights: two on the sheet of red plastic behind me, two green gelled strip boxes on either side of my face, and a very dim Broncolor para in front. The para was because I wasn't sure how much of a silhouette I wanted for my features, so I shot it with different levels. In the end, it was almost off, at .1 or something like that. The para and the two side lights were connected to a Broncolor Scoro, and the two BG lights were portable ProFoto strobes.
