4x5 field camera

[_T_]

I also have a Cambo SC 4x5 monorail and recommend it. I keep the short 12 inch rail and the bag bellows on the camera to make it compact. Unless you are shooting with very long lenses, the bag bellows works fine with wide to medium-long lenses. Frankly, I tend to shoot only with the Nikon 90mm f4.5, but a 210 will work equally well.

Another plus is they are plentiful, the accessories are easy to find and relatively inexpensive.

That’s funny I do the exact same thing. I really only break out the long rail and bellows for macro stuff anymore. I really like not getting jabbed in the chest by the 54cm rail.

There’s a 12” rail available on b&h right now for like $20 or something if anyone is looking for one. I payed way more for mine.
