Hello everyone. I'd like to start by saying when I find something that I truly love, I promote it to the ends. I just received my Wehman 8x10 today along with fujinon 450-c and 240-a lenses. ( The lenses came from Midwest Photo Exchangehttp://www.mpex.com/ ...another great company) WOW WOW WOW. After playing with the camera and processing a couple of sheets I got on the phone and called Bruce Wehman to congratulate him on a WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL camera. This camera is designed for the hardcore landscape shooter... the guy that's going to really use it! I am extremely impressed with the sturdiness of the camera. (And it's only 8.5 lbs!!!!) When you tilt the front standard it STAYS WHERE YOU PUT IT, period. With every other field camera that i've tried I've always been annoyed by the way the front standard retracts back a mm or so when you release it after focusing. That drives me nuts. This camera stays put without budging a breath. The camera has plenty of moves... all the moves you'll need for landscape. If you shoot architectual then you'll be better off with a monorail. Bruce states this himself. The camera comes with 2 lensboards and 2 ground glasses... one glass, one plexiglass. I'm not affiliated with Wehman camera in any shape or form. I'm strictly a user. Bruce seems like a real good human being. He knows his stuff and has made a gem of a camera. I want to pass this on to all of you who are looking for a used 8x10 or any other for that matter. Save your money. The Wehman is only $1,8??.00 some odd dollars and it's Brand Spankin New. Plus there is even a 30 day money back full guarantee. My 4x5 is an Arca Swiss and for the past 2 months I've been waiting for the 8x10 format conversion kit to come in. I got tired of waiting so I purchased a used format conversion kit last week on *bay and the thing was very funky. I ended up returning it to the guy. I was bummed... but I didn't realize it was all for a good reason. I decided to try the Wehman and now I ain't lookin back. Thanks Bruce. You deserve all the success you get. Here's the website for the camera: http://www.wehmancamera.com/camban.html

Give it a look, you'll be glad you did.

Sincerely
Bob Sandstrom
