I came across this on flickr today, Chamonix 4x5 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/rayrayleung/846491582/)

Anyone know anything of this camera?

I find the ULF comment even more interesting.

Chamonix cameras have been discussed here previously - ad nauseum.

My apologies. I did not research it.

David, I have one. I took it to my Utah/Arizona trip. It will make you forget about Shenhao. Here is something you wouldn't see it on the photo. Mine weights 3lb 3.8oz (on a USPS scale).

I missed the initial discussion of these as well. I'm looking for a small and light 4x5 at the moment to replace the heavier monorail I've been hiking with. This could be just the ticket. Any word on a distributer yet?
