Yes Don we are looking at marketing them, have some comments under a forum post "help us design our 6 x 9" this camera is by FOCUS part of Focus-Da-yi...I have 3 of these available...will put in classified after my London trip..one will go with me...you can use 6 x 17 or 6 x 12 or graflox equip...have 3 backs also....

the post I mentioned above is by Fotoman, not to hijack the post..I couldnt get the photo uploaded there as part of that post...this is not a foto man product...did nt mean to imply that..this is very light weight and usable hand held ... that is how I use it..have made prints 3 to 4 ft wide, very inexpensive and functional set up.
 
sweeeeeet. I did some street shots with a rented fuji 6x17. Very nice prototype you got there. I'd do a rollcage with it like the Fuji. don't want to bang that lens around on something.
 
Eric,

this one is the finished product and it is shown with the 90 mm lens...other cones are available for different focal lengths. with the 6 x 12 back on it is very compact and light and will also do 6 x 6 and 6 x 9 . I have mainly used this for street shots and have been very happy with the results..no need to spend thousands. for up to 6 x 17, cone for 90 and camera body and the optional ground glass bellows and 6 x 17 back 850 U.S. while they last...
 
Wow. Cool. So for 850 US, I can get a cone and a 6x12 back (I can do 12cm on my 4x5 enlarger). All I need to do is slap my 90mm on it? Very nice. That's an SWC killer.
 
No Eric,

That would be with the 6 x 17 back, which does 6 x 9 and 6 x 12 also...the 6 x 12 back set up would be less.
 
The ground glass can be put on the camera back for critical focus then the film back inserted or the helical focus mount can be used and the glass not used at all...
 
Ever since I rented that Fuji 6x17 many years ago, I've had fantasies of being able to afford one. Now that I have an enlarger that can do 6x12, I think in the not so distant future (sell junk), I can have a walkable pano setup.
