Drawings for 20x24 equipment

[Falkenberg]

I am looking for drawings (Blueprints?) for making a 20x24 camera, filmholder and contactframe.

Is there a place in europe that make bellows for this size of camera ?

I hope You can help me.

Best regards
Mikkel

Hi Mikkel,

for bellows, have a look at http://www.camerabellows.com/
If you need a bellows, I still have a 60x80cm bellows waiting to be used... I might be willing to part from it. It stretches up to 100cm.

For construction details, I think Jim made an instruction book from his 8x20" project:
(there was a url link here which no longer exists)


And... did the 8x10 project work out?

Greetings,

G, no I didn't make my own bellows. Dan Dozer has a good book available for camera and bellows construction.

Alternately, you can look at several designs and keep your eyes out for a process camera, the bellows tend to be pretty large (the ones I got are 24x27 at the large end) and will obviously require some creative engineering, of course.

Thanks for the correction, Jim, I really thought it was you.

My 8x10 exam project has turned into two cameras, that are being 3D printed at the moment. I will post pictures to camera building thread when they are done and working.

I tried to google the Dan Dozer book, but without success. Anybody that has a link ?

G, no problem. I'm going to build my own for the 11x14.

I'm looking forward to that!

3D printing could be interesting for ULF filmholders if the price is not too high.

Well worth getting even if you plan to build a different format.
