Selling a Toko FL-452 4x5 camera in generally excellent condition. This model is rather uncommon and offers capabilities rarely seen on a reasonably lightweight (1736 grams, 3 pounds 13-1/4 ounces) camera. In addition to the normal rotating back and front and rear tilts it has front swing, rear swing, rear shift. But wait, there's more! The rear standard can be extended forwards and backwards (geared drive) to give a range of about 60mm to 360mm of extension; 360mm (~14") is around 2" more than your usual Nagaoka/Ikeda-class 4x5. The bellows are light-tight and the camera's overall condition is excellent.
The camera has one real flaw - it's missing one of the front swing locking levers. The single remaining lever is more than sufficient to lock the swing, so it's still usable, but it's less convenient depending on which way you apply swing. Someone more competent than I could probably fabricate a replacement lock.
