Can that be shot in the vertical format? Nice

Is that a Hasselblad?
Richard, I am not much for panorama myself but I am happy that you got the camera you wanted. It lookes like a beauty. BTW, my whole outfit cost about the same as one of your film holders. Some day I wil be able to buy the good stuff too. Happy shooting.
Andre:
The Phillips 7x17 can indeed be used in a vertical orientation, without supplemental bracing. See

Congratulations, Richard. That’s one beautiful camera.

Hey! What the....when did he get that camera?!? :>)
Did Phillips do earlier runs of the 7x17?
When I was 16 I thought my father the stupidest man in the world; when I reached 21, I was astounded by how much he had learned in just 5 years!

Richard,
Dick made 2 (yup, count em... 1... 2...) 7x17 cameras about a dozen years ago, about the same time he made six 12x20 cameras.

When did anyone get the idea that one is old at 70??? My wood shop is still active. Jim
