First I would like to thank Ellis Veneer and others who have commented on my pas t questions here and elsewhere concerning architectural/interior photography. Fr om reading the responses, and doing a little research, I have determined to take the plunge and buy what I believe to be the right tools for the job. As such I will be looking to exchange my current equipment to buy a monorail camera that c an be used for architectural as well as product photography.
Ellis suggested buying an Arca Swiss Discovery as an inexpensive way (needed) to get started. I had thought that maybe I could pickup a used one, and put more m oney into getting better lenses. After looking at various ads, and comparing oth er new prices as well, I am seeing units such as the new Toyo models 45C and CX as well as used Sinar F1's and Cambo's, at prices better than the Discovery new; Used Discovery's are hard to find. So my question is: What used or new camera a nd system would allow me to accomplish my goals at a reasonable price and have e nough movements for what I need to do, and options for expansion, maybe includin g a binocular viewer. I would also like to use the camera for occasional landsc ape work as well.
