For Sale Wista 4x5 with 4 lenses, grafmatic backs, film, etc.

[jordanstarr]

All lenses are scratch, haze, fungus free (optics are perfect) and work perfectly. Some minimal paint wear here and there. All are mounted on boards that fit the Wista system. Camera is in great condition. It sometimes snags on the rail when folding out, but it's not a big deal with some maneuvering.

Nikon W 105mm f5.6 lens - $250

Prices are OBO and I will keep shipping cheap. Can combine and offer better prices for more film purchased.


I have realized that 4x5, although a great system with amazing results, just doesn't do amazing for my documentary-style photography at this time. I will go back to large format eventually, but right now need money more than a camera I use once a month and would rather focus on 35mm and 120 formats.

I'm not wanting to split it up, but I have a feeling I'll have to split at least some things. Preference goes to those who want more than one item.

I am not a large format guru and certainly not an expert on pricing. If you feel that my prices are too high, make me an offer. My pricing technique was dropping the price about 10-30% of what I paid for it.

I have photos of individual items, but rest assured when I say that lenses are in perfect condition.
