So - does anyone know of a supplier of 54" x 154" sheet film? Holy Smokes!

It's just a baby, the film holder is 'only' 26 X 38 inches! The big bit is for holding art work. Backpacking anyone?

You could mount it into a modified Bus, then use sheet film cut from factory master rolls

I think somneone (Sean) should buy it just to take a group shot in Toronto next May.

No, he's fitting bellows to his living room - expanding space and making a giant camera in one go!

I wonder how he'll manage to bring the house?

A fascinating object - well spotted! I shall be watching its progress with interest, it might just sell for $50, there is a very good chance it will end up in a junkyard! The seller is a greenhorn with just 2 e-bay trades, he sure likes writing big price tickets!

 

[Daniel Grenier]

But what happenned to the bellows?

He's also listing a 71 inch rodenstock lens for only $22,000.00

I wish I lived in his fantasy world....
