When I was in a photo club in Houston around 15 years ago we went on a field trip to take pictures. One of the guys had a large format camera and I was just wondering if it was a 4x5 sized film sheet. I will try to attach a picture of it below. It was a Linhof Technikardan?. These may be a little too large.

Thanks for the answer. I was thinking that's what it was. I looked on the internet and it appears that they now make a model in 6x9cm?. The camera I posted was at least 14 years old or so.

They've made a 6x9cm version for a while, so that distinction wouldn't help date the camera. But that's definitely the 4x5 version from the size and the ground glass proportions.
