Please read more carefully. My second sentence is: Have you ever owned a wooden field camera?
Thus qualified, I spoke of light tight wooden boxes. And yes, I have owned and used several Sinars, Linhofs and Masterviews. What's your point? The only way you know what will be on your negative is by looking at the ground glass and then only if the gg to film plane is matched to your holders.
You also seem to have missed the point of the Ernest’s article which is that an introduction to large format need not cost a fortune. The goal is to get out and create images.
