What 4x5 large format camera do you shoot?


  • Total voters

An actual Zone VI 4x5.
 
Cambo and Graphic View. I made a Graphic View lensboard for a particular lens and so continue to use that even after getting the Cambo - which is a more versatile camera. I also have a truly battered Speed Graphic that I sometimes use. (also have a Crown Graphic and two RB Graflex - one 3x4 - and a 3x4 SG....) Too many. Just too many.
The problem is too many cameras - not enough photos.
 
Graphic View II, plus I have 4x5 backs for a 5x7 Agfa-Ansco and a 8x10 'Dorff.
 
Gowland PocketView (Calumet edition)
 
Didn't read through the list, but what about the Burk & James branded Calumet CC400? I'm the second owner of mine, purchased from a retired studio photographer (produced all of the Gerber baby food ad photos until he retired. It never left his studio until I purchased it from him.).
 
Linhof Kardan re.

@John Wiegerink lol, as long as that's just drool.

Trust me, at my age it's just drool. I think I slobber more now than I did when I was cutting my first tooth. It's a bitch getting old, but it sure beats looking at the inside lid of a casket. Have a great and happy holidays!
Might to get a little sunshine tomorrow and a high of 32F, so I might take the Chamonix 45N2 for a little spin. If it's not windy. I hate wind and cold together.
 
I still own the same cameras:
  • circa 1928 4"x5" Graflex Model D
  • 1958 4"x5" Pacemaker Speed Graphic
 
Speed Graphic, inoperative focal plane shutter with 127mm lens. Calumet CC400 w/Caltar 5.6/135 mm lens.

Later purchased from a retired professional photographer that did all of the Gerber Baby Food photos until about 2015 when he retired. He picked up the camera at Burk & James when purchased from Calumet. The only time that it was out of his studio was when he delivered it to me in a grocery store parking lot. I purchased it from him off the big auction site. It's condition was like the day he picked it up from B&J.
 
Cambo SF with all the rail extensions and 2 standard bellows.
