Ebony 4x5 2nd-hand in-store retailers in London, Berlin, Copenhagen, Amsterdam or Rotterdam?

[nick mulder]

Hello all,

Long time no post! (years I think

I'm interested in shooting landscape 4x5" and the Ebony field cameras have piqued my interest.

I'll be travelling through the cities listen in the post title and I can't spring the $/£/€ for new so I'm wondering if there are any retailers that would have any 2nd hand available to view and purchase?

I'm interested mainly in the style listed on ebay here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EBONY-SW45-...723977?hash=item1a2a1d77c9:g:uSUAAOSwvKtY9sd2

I currently have a Nikkor-SW 90mm 1:4.5 Copal 1 that I'd mate with it. While I know it's a compromise between lightweight/foldability and wide movement capability - it's probably what I'd spring for without any other advice.

Any discussion appreciated

Try Teamwork in Foley Street, London, or Aperture in Rathbone Place, no Ebony's at the moment but they do get them occasionally

Can I have one of their offspring

Thanks Ian, will do.

I'll email them both ahead of time and ask. Either way I'll have a look - if they occasionally stock Ebony then I figure there will something else I can tyre kick anyway

I was at both Teamwork and Aperture two days ago, no Ebony's and only LF cameras at Teamwork i.e. none at Aperture

good luck

Hi Andrew, I've seen Ebony cameras in Aperture adverts, however I think most cameras like this and similar sell privately, on Forums, Ebay etc. I know in the past that Teamwork used to have people waiting for second hand field cameras so they were rarely seen on the shelf or adverts/websites etc.

You are aware that Ebony is out of business, aren't you? You'll only find used or new-old-stock now.
