Toyo-View D45M LF Camera, Symmar 150mm/f5.6 Lens in Prontor-Press Shutter, 45R Binocular Finder
The D45M is an older body, made between 1969 and 1977. The camera has front and rear center-axis tilt, front and rear geared rise, front and rear swing as well as front and rear shift. The standard bellows can be easily removed and replaced with a bag bellows when using wide angle lenses. Additional extension rails (
6" extension INCLUDED) can be added for extreme telephoto focal lengths or close focus work. The ground glass back can be easily removed and features a rotating collar for easily transitioning between landscape or portrait orientation.
The lens is a
Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar 150mm/f5.6 lens, and is convertible to 265mm/f12 by removing the front element. Glass is clean and clear; no haze or fungus. The shutter is a
Prontor-Press; shutter speeds sound accurate.

A small light leak in the bellows, and it has been patched.
