I bought my 4x5 camera from a retired pro photographer. He photographed all of the Gerber Baby Food photos until he retired in the mid 2000's. His only lens was the 135mm. It's all I use today, it's like they're married. He picked up that Calumet branded camera from Burk and James in Chicago. The first time it had been out of his studio was when we met in a parking lot to seal the *bay purchase. I later picked up a JOBO ATL2+ from him that Fred from Wisconsin has rebuilt. The man's legacy lives on.
