Selling my nice Rittreck 5x7 view camera kit. I’ve shot 55 sheets of film on this camera, and have determined that this type of photography is not right for me. I tried, I tried…
Kit consists of a Rittreck field camera in good condition. The bellows are light tight, but they do have a couple of creases in them. The method to close this camera is precise, and if you don’t get it right, that can happen. These creases were on the bellows when I bought the camera. The closing sequence isn’t hard, but you have to do it in the right order. I’ve been extremely careful about this.
The Camera has a nice ground glass with a clear view. The added “hood” comes in handy for quicker compositions. Also included is a proper dark cloth. Movements are smooth and easy. The camera, once folded, seems indestructible.
There are two lenses:
Also included:
3x Fidelity Deluxe 5x7 film holders. All seem to be light tight.
an extra Rittreck lens board
lens cloths for the two lenses
dark cloth
cable release
45 sheets of Arista 100 film, in date.
Nice Tenba bag that actually hold all of this.
**I can separate out the lenses if you are just looking for the camera and holders/film, and don't need lenses. **
I’m looking to get $1200 net for the complete package. It’s a nice shooting kit. Only thing missing is a tripod.
Alternatively, I would like $700 for the camera, film holders, lens boards and accessories.
I will cover shipping in CONUS.

There are two lenses:
- A Fujinon-W 135 f5.6 in a good, accurate shutter, mounted on a Rittreck board. The lens is clean and clear, makes sharp images, and the shutter fires correctly on all speeds. Comes with caps.
- A Fujinar 25cm (250mm) f4.5 mounted in a Shanel 5B-S /Rittreck shutter. This is mounted on a Linhof board and then onto a custom Linhof to Rittreck adapter board. The shutter is great, fires on all speeds correctly. Glass is clean and clear. Lovely image quality. Comes with a front cap only
