New 11x14 camera in the basket...

[Guillaume Zuili]

Well...
It took almost a year to be restored. But it's amazing, worth the wait. Patrick Alt (and Tracy) did an incredible job. Folmer & Schwing like new.

Now I need to find a subject quick !

What a gorgeous camera. Looks like a Deadorff Packard shutter box on the front. What kind of lens is that?

Yes it is on a reducing board...
Lens is a Ross, London Aero 20 inches f;6

I have another one with Packard 6 but not adjusted yet for a Xenar 420 f;4,5.

Guillaume, the camera is really great looking. Congrat's on getting into ULF. I love my 11x14 and I'm sure you will to.
Great restoration job.

Guillaume, Thanks for the mention, Patrick did 99.9% of the work, I just did the new focusing shafts and gears.
Do you have a "before" picture to post? It is hard to believe it is the same camera, Patrick really brought it back to life.
I hope you make some beautiful work with the camera soon.

Tracy, unfortunately I don't have it anymore (digital destiny isn't it ? ). But yeah, hard to believe !
Thanks all, now I need to work with it !

 

[bill spears]

God these things are beautiful !! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to start on my recent wholeplate acquisition, just hope I can do it justice

That camera is sexayyyyyyyy

 

[Kerik]

Nice rig, Guillaume! Patrick does beautiful work on those old beasts.

Guillaume, congrats! The camera is beautiful but I know the photos will be even more so! I had one just like this. I think about 7 or 8 11X14's ago. The Deardorff turned out to be the keeper even though it is VERY heavy.

Very nice. It looks like your camera is a lot sturdier than my 11x14 New Improved Empire State View Camera. What is the maximum bellows extension on your rig? Jon

 

[Guillaume Zuili]

Bellows extension is 28. No crazy close up here but that's fine.

P.S. Okay, maybe if I include free shipping????
