List of 8x10 Field Cameras

[vinny]

Yea, originally I was only concerned about cameras that were available new from the manufacturer, but I have wavered a bit from that.

you CAN buy a new dorff, just don't ask the folks you've sent them money lately!

Yea, I know. I was going to make a joke about it, but hesitated cause I thought someone might start the flame machine up.

This is good info, even if you aren't planning to buy an 8x10. It puts my camera into perspective.
I did something similar before I took the plunge, but only compared against a small number of cameras.
Thank you.

Nice list . . .only brand new and in-production cameras? Lots of excellent cameras available used.

ohh this is a nice list !!!
you're missing the arca swiss f 8x10, but if you write it there, don't write the price =)

The list was for field cameras. I have an arca swiss f classic 4x5, and it's no field camera!

Daniel,
Excellent list, thanks for doing the research.
I was wondering if you might like to add the Toyo 810M's successor, the MII, which is still available new.

[dperez]

Ari, the one listed is the MII, the column width was too narrow to see the MII, I'll fix it soon.

Daniel, thank you for the list.

Some statistics:

cameras under 4Kg (8.8lbs) just 4
cameras under 3Kg (6.6lbs) just 1

I recently have added a 5x7 back to my rittreck. So I can use 4x5 and 5x7. And weight is around 4kg (8.8lbs).

I know that Rittreck also has a 8x10 back, but this back is very bulky (I have read that it extends lenght around 100mm to allow 8x10 format).

I am looking alternatives and I have seen some Nagaokas recently. Please could someone add detailed specifications of Nagaoka (It looks that this cameras has several different models so its difficult to read old post and make conclusions)

Thanks
