For Trade My Fuji Ga645Zi or Hasselblad 500 c/m for your lightweight 4x5

[kahlheins]

Looking to move up from years of 120 film to 4x5 large format to learn the ropes and start an 8x10 project in a year or two that I have envisioned for a while. At the same time, I am looking to reduce my medium format collection, and the Ga645Zi will be the first to go. Alternatively one of my Hasselblad 500 c/m is also up for offer.

I am looking for a lightweight 4x5 camera to swap for which is < 2kg. From my own research, the Chamonic 45F-2 seems the best contender, but an Intrepid 4x5 MK3/ MK4 should also be a good fit. If you have a camera that suits my needs that is looking for a new home, and are also interested in the Fuji or Hasselblad please get in touch! I might also be interested in film holders and potentially lenses if they fit my needs.

Finally, I am looking to swap with someone in the EU to avoid Duty, Tax etc. and just make things easier!

Hi, There is one who sells his Intrepid 4x5, in Sweden. You can get in touch if you can.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend an Intrepid 5x4 to a beginner. It's a fine camera, but IMO it takes a bit of experience to get the best out of it. The Chamonix would be a great choice, if looking for something new, or a used wooden folding camera like the Wista DX.

HI, I would recommend a Gibellini 4x5 3d printed, lightweight as it gets. They manufacture high quality cameras and have 2 models on low price entry in 4x5 and 8x10. A friend is interested in the fuji, located in spain.
Cheers!
