    I ordered two 4x5 film holders and straps too, but no rush for me either Bruce, they are spares!!

    Well 2 more 4x5 Cascades and 2 more 8x10 Cascades and I think they, along with my P3 and its cases, will see me out! I have never been so well organised in the field since changing over to Bruce's system. My word how Photobackpacker is going to be missed...

    Good luck with your retirement. I finally ordered the 8x10 and 4x5 Cascade holders I've had my eye on. Did you try to sell the business? That seems like a win-win, if you could find someone.

    Bruce, it doesn't seem like it was that long ago that we met in Muir Woods. I had the 8x10 out and my MEI backpack on the ground. We spoke about a lot of things related to photography. Best of luck in retirement. I hope to follow you in a couple of years.

    Hi Jim:
    I remember it well. I have always Joked that the large-format community is so small, if someone in Ireland sneezes, someone in China says "bless you." The fact that you had heard of Photobackpacker when we met in the Muir Woods that day confirmed that. :-)

    I would love to sell it but between the economy and the complexity of the product line, that is unlikely to happen.

    Sell it and become an advisor and glean some retirement cash from it.

    Congratulations on your retirement. I finally got around to order the P3 and camera case for my Ebony 5x7SUE along with a whole mess of film holder cases.

    Well, I finally realized that the best investment I can make in my photography is to help me get the camera out more often an more far. Like good shoes...
    Ordered full setup for my 8x10 Tachi a while ago.
    Website of sorts, as well as flickr thing.
