I covered the entire camera (minus the lens) with the dark cloth (black T shirt) and clips when I had the problem. I still do this (minus clips) as a habit.

There may be a different cause for each.
With the weak band on the right, I would think it's a light leak caused by the camera as well. It would be quite difficult for the light to reach an inch...
I never imagined such was the case and stand corrected. I thought the square opening would provide as much space as the round light trap does. Then the search for a recessed board gets trickier.
It complicates things a little. I'm not sure about your camera's identity, but they do look quite similar. The other camera uses a wooden board. Does your camera take Linhof Technika boards, i.e....
It will work. I have one (original linhof technika recessed lens board) and use it with my Tachihara.
Every object in front of a lens forms a focused image behind the lens--just at different distances. Focused images are there no matter where the ground glass is.
So another way of looking at it is...

It's a Grafmatic-like 8-shooter using regular sheet films. The only way to know for sure would be to open it and feel the notch code.

I took a tour just like it (city + Muir Woods) on my first visit to SF. The tour was operated by Gray Line (the one with brochures/tour desk in hotel lobbies), and was very enjoyable and...

To me the price seems quite reasonable for a try.
Here're some examples of 4x5 photos taken with a MF 105mm lens (MAMIYA C-SEKOR 105mm/F3.5).

I think your choice of the camera and scanner is an excellent one to "make a trial," as far as they let you do the kind of photography you intend.

Some, if rare, 203mm Ektars do fit in No.0 shutters (mine came in Prontor SVS, not a Press).
Some others came in factory-fitted Compur 1 as discussed in a previous thread:...

There are 203mm Ektars produced in Europe (UK?), and they screw right into Copal 0. Mine has "Mount 370" written in front...
This is truly a shocking news. Although I didn't know Ted personally, and regret not to have had the honor, he was a fine, most respectable gentleman.
My sincerest condolences.
And some cables with short nipples (seemingly flexible) have solid inserts under the cover to protect the "rod" at the tip. Those didn't fit in the Linhof recessed board as it has so little space...
I don't believe it, either, for the same reason mounting an old barrel lens in a modern shutter wouldn't make it a Super Symmar (or whatever). Also I don't believe the aperture shape has "the single...
I've had a box (my first and last) of Readyloads with loose clips--a couple of them fell off the envelope while handling the packet.

With cityscapes and landscapes, I have felt on occasions a panoramic format would more "naturally" capture what I'm seeing in front of me. Since I learned about Bilge Ceylan's work, then saw Lyle...
When I started LF, I didn't know which system would work best for me (films, packets vs. DDS, etc.). I also wanted to limit the initial investment, so I bought a Polaroid holder that did all three...

The 6.5 x 9 (2-1/2" x 3-1/2") format is called "dai-meishi" (meaning "large business card") and dates back to 1910-1920. Now "dai-meishi" and 6x9 are, to some extent, used interchangeably.
