Usually people start off with a cheap Calumet ³student² camera.
Then they progress to a mid range better one. A Cambo or a Toyo.

Then on the third tier when they know they¹re going out every weekend with
their view camera and going through boxes of sheets of film and they¹re a
near millionaire with shows in galleries do they start thinking about
Sinar or
Deardorf or Linhof

Or nowadays Ebony

I shoot with a Cambo NX
Made in Holland with the Tulips, Windmills, Bicycles, Dykes and Canals.
Its got numbers up and down it. Not great for the field. Or canals.


I'd kill for a Linhof Master Technika

Maim for a Sinar F or P
Disfigure for an Ebony

Mutilate for a Canham

Spindle for a Horseman
