Tachihara 4x5 field camera - Looks Great - Works Great!
I own two of these cameras, so I'm selling one -- reluctantly.
It's a beautiful cherrywood field camera with brass fittings in the classic double extension design. The bottom plate of this camera is so unmarked, it's hard to believe it was ever mounted on a tripod. It comes with one lensboard, (35mm hole), ready for the lens of your choice. This is a beautiful camera, too -- people always comment or ask questions aabout it. The Tachihara is handmade from selected cherrywood using traditional Japanese craftsmanship. It weighhs 3.3 lbs. and folds into a box-shape about 3.4 inches thick -- easily carried it in a backpack. It takes Linhof/Wista style lens boards -always available on eBay. It has a full range of movements including front rise, tilt, and swings for both standards. All controls lock down tight. The ground glass has a grid to help with architectural shots and such. It has two nameplates on it. Minimum bellows extension is 65mm (great for wide angle lenses), and the maximum is 330 mm. I will include a Xeroxed copy of the manual. Overall, this is a great camera you'll be proud to use for any large format situation -- portraits, landscapes still lifes, fashion . . . or whatever. (I'd better stop writing before I talk myself out of selling it.) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT |
