Would you please supply a few details about this gear?
Format size, lens and tripod.
Nice jack stand!
It's a Chamonix 11x14 on a manfrotto 161mk2b tripod. The lens is a Voigtländer no 7 18" f4.5
I am waiting for a part to be machined up so i can mount my majestic 1200 head. I am actually kind of glad i went for this tripod over a ries. I mean this setup is bloody solid as a rock, especially for the price. Im sure a ries is bettet again bit would have financially ruined me harder than this camera + lens already has :p
Here is my new (old) ROC King 11x14 circa 1895-1903. You can read more on this super light weight ULF camera here: http://www.piercevaubel.com/cam/roc/king.htm

I have yet to take it out for a spin - just getting it to attach to my tripod head etc. Can't wait for next week when the weather is good.
Angus, looks great. Is that a new bellows? Did you do anything to modify the back for modern holders?
Angus,
Would you please post a photo showing the back modification? I have a similar camera, but mine has not been modified. The rib portion of the holder extends beyond the back so film is susceptible to light leaks. I'd be very interested in seeing how your camera was modified.
Thanks,
Michael
The modification is quite minor. Someone has cut a small part of the edge of the right side of the back standard away so that the holder slides all the way behind the ground glass.here are some pictures:
