A newbie question: I'm considering entering LF with a 6x12 dedicated camera landscape shots in large Japanese gardens like Portland, Oregon's Japanese Garden. I've done research and it appears that the two best "least expensive" options are a Crown Graphic or Horseman HF body with either the Horseman or one of the Chinese 6x12 backs. I have Kerry's View Camera Magazine article on using a Crown for this. Does anyone have any input on the Horseman HF? I do have a source for a user HF body but at $650 it strikes me as a little expensive if the Crown will be almost as good. Hopefully someone who has owned by the HF and a Crown could comment here.
thanks much in advance,
Tom
