Left-over equipment?

If you are serious about getting into 4X5, PM me I have everything that you need from lenses (Schneider) to camera (Zone VI wood field). I even have a spare enlarger (Saunders 4550 VCCE XLG with lens). I only lack an easel and tripod to complete a full outfit.

My recent move to 5X7 has left me with a fair amount of excess equipment.

Hello there; do you have, or could you direct me to, a place or website that I might be able to acquire add'l lensboards for my Calumet 45NX? I have the one that came with the camera, and that's it. (6 3/8" square) For now, I have just one lens, so this is not crucial at the moment. So far, I see they are NOT plentiful. I have looked at many sites such as KEH, Adorama, B&H, and lots of others.
I may have to break down and make my own, but am trying to avoid that.
Thanks...

Richard,

I have a Cambo SC 4x5, but I believe it uses the same sized lensboard (6 3/8" square) that your Calumet 45NX does. My camera came with two lensboards, but I have added a few more and they were all purchased from eBay. I think that's where you should look. Also, last I checked, I saw these boards on KEH as well. So, it's not very difficult to find these - you may have to wait a little to get one at a decent price. Good luck!


Best wishes,
Sanjay
