Looking for a clean Toyo 45A. This camera will serve as a teaching tool for my classroom so my budget is tighter than I'd like it to be. Trying to get cameras in the hands of the future.

Thanks!

I suggest looking for an old 4x5 monorail;They are better suited for a classroom and less ezpensive than a metal-field camera.

I second the monorail recommendation.

I am learning on a Sinar F and I believe it's perfect, since it has no geared adjustments, except for focus. No frills, no bells and whistles, just a simple and straight forward camera.

I've heard they're a dime a dozen now.


Cheers,
Flavio

Edit: I should have read the original post better.

I've got an Omega View I want to sell. Would prefer not to ship, but at your expense. View camera, case, 210 lens (on board): $300. I used it mostly outdoors, and finally got a field camera.
