Prototype of the Polish 4x5 LF camera

That's very pretty indeed... and a lot like my Wista (with a bit more brass)! What wood have you used?

Hello ,

Wonderful camera , extremelly beatiful and classy. I wish you a great success and great oppurtinity for Polish photographers.
May be you could build wooden tripod for that jewel. Is there big format film sellers at Poland. I think not camera but film prices would be tight the wallet. May be you can import Russian film and sell online if they are cheaper.
May be a back from Scanner array and digital option would interest the digital people.
I contacted with many companies at Europe and they sell Sony Linear Scanner array and fitted card and connected RAM for less than 25 dollars.
I think the greatest thing is to build 6x6 , 4x5 and 8x10 scanners for camera backs.

Best wishes to Poland ,

I recently asked them for price and availability. 10 pcs are being manufactured, some made out of beech-wood, the other - PVC, for self assembly. Prices: 3000 and 1000 Zloty respectively (about 750 and 250 Euro). They should be available for dispatching at the end of the summer.

A PVC version sounds very interesting... I wonder how light that would be? (The Beech version is beautiful, but I already have my Wista)

The specific density of PVC is about three times that of wood.
