Linhof Kardan Color 45S Bag Bellows?

[Lisa Stinner]

Hello everyone,

I am new to largeformatphotography.info, but am, in general, familiar with large format photography (at least I'd like to think I am!). So I just have a quick question about my Linhof Kardan Color 45S. I'm trying to find a bag bellows for this camera, but have not seen one recently on ebay or anywhere else on the Internet. Does anyone in this forum know if the bellows for the Linhof Kardan Color 45S is similar to any other Linhof camera model?

Cheers, all the best, and Happy Holidays!

The current wide angle bag bellows for the current Kardan M, GT and GTL fit the 45S.

The bellows for the Technikardan and the Kardan E do not and can not be made to fit.

When your camera was made the WA bellows was a bag with a short pleated bellows in the front.

For the past 20+ years it has been a bag only.

Thank you so much Bob,

Your reputation is well founded!

Cheers

Sorry, the one for the E does fit. The ones fr the ST series do not.
