    What's the business about 5x8 instead of the standard 5x7?

    8 x 10 film, cut it in half, the other way is 4 x 10.

    8X10 sheet cut in half, better ratio, and you can use 5X7 holders inside the 5X8 back

    Check out Jiri's website. I don't think he even has a photo of 5X8 and has a bunch of 13x18cm shots using his 5X8 Chamonix.

    Hugo, I know that this guy was not supposed to do this only after I had put the deposit down, when you informed me of this. Any new parts, accessories will be through you. I was just letting people know what I had seen on E'Bay, I thought it was legit at first, so maybe Chamonix needs to rein this guy in a bit if you are the main US importer/dealer.

    As I had mentioned earlier on this forum, I purchased one from the ebay dealer thinking that I was purchasing from Hugo. (Tiejun, the Chinese dealer had not represented himself as Hugo, I had erroneously made the assumption.)

    I paid $65 more for the camera than had I bought it through Hugo, and had to put down a $265 deposit when initially ordered approximately two months ago. Mine was shipped yesterday (8/1) from Beijing. It seems those that ordered through Hugo received their's a week or so earlier.

    I too recently purchased a Chamonix 45 and patiently await its arrival.
    Got it from Hugo who is a very nice guy to deal with - thank you Hugo.

    Mike, I have like 90% shots 13x18cm, 10% 5x8". None of the 5x8" so far are as good as the 13x18cm, so I have not presented them. Maybe my viewing style at the moment... But in due time, I'll surely have something interesting to show

    Hi,
