    Yes. The Majestic head is quite strong, it's the studio stand that could be heavier, I think for the 8x10" P. The big ones are like 300 lbs, and mine is much lighter.

    Hi David,

    It would be nice to have one of those older Linhof stands... but you seldom see them over here these days. I understand people still have them over in Germany (and are selling them as the owners retire) but shipping one of those beasts over to our neck of the world would probably cost an arm and leg!

    I had a chance to buy one from a studio years ago but, regretfully, I passed since I wasn't shooting large format in those days.

    Can't win them all but, if I had the chance again...

    Cheers
    Life in the fast lane!
