Shen-Hao FCL57-A Impressions

Sweet! Nice smooth focus I can imagine? I use these rails in different sizes and they work great.

Thanks for the photos,
Dan

You`re welcome. Yes, the focus is very fast, smooth and precise. Perfect

Enough images of the camera, here`s a quick portrait of my son.

Amund,

It's all your fault , I just found:

Shen-Hao FCL810 - A

Blonde wood, black bellows, silver hardware, looks crisp, clean, just right. Now to find their direct link web page and tell them how to hot-rod it. It needs:

4x5, 5x7 and 5x12 backs, they already make the 4x10;
SatinSnow ground glass, maybe Dave could do a licensing agreement
a bail arm to open the back;
trunnions at the rear body mounts and pivots at the rear tilt arm mounts to allow rear swing without inducing rear shift. Should be an easy change on the production line

Yes, Christmas is coming, now to sell some toys to pay for it.

Lol, I guess your custom camera would be slightly more expensive than mine.
The back your describing sounds like a Wehman rear standard
I`d love to have Shen-Haos front standard on my Wehman...

Nice, handled a FCL-810 in Guangzhou when it frist came out.

Just think if they make a 4x5 with that minimist design

Is their website http://www.shen-hao.com/?

I can't get throught.

Nice camera though. Is there a 4x5 reducing back?

[Amund BLix Aaeng]

Tjere is something wrong with the site it seems, but here is the 5x7: http://www.shen-hao.com/E57512.html

Yes, I have the 4x5 back for it.

4x5 or the FCL-57?

[Amund BLix Aaeng]

I have the FCL57 with both 5x7 and 4x5 backs.
