    Hobo, 4x5, 5x7 and 8x10 point 'n shoot

    I'm curious if anyone out there in cyberspace has tried out the Hobo LF point 'n shoots, available at http://www.bostick-sullivan.com

    They seem like they could be pretty useful in situations where you had to be qui ck and when using wide-angle with deep depth of field.

    Obviously, no swings, tilts, etc. But you do get a big negative.

    Hobo, 4x5, 5x7 and 8x10 point 'n shoot

    After flying the 8x10" box kite in the Hawai'i trade winds for the last two weeks, the Hobo is looking like a serious possiblity to me at the moment.

    Do the Hobo's use sheet film holders? I could not imagine having to load each sheet in a darkroom.
