Some of you may remember me saying i wanted to make a large format camera my self in 8x10
well here it is. The below picture is of my dad - i took this picture on enlargeing paper. I havent yet tryed film but have ordered some ilford ortho film and look foreward to trying that. This camera was never intended for field use, it is primarily for portraits and, well its made of chipboard but seems to work.
It is a slideing box camera of a primitive type - the back part you can see is the slideing element and has an attatchment for plate holder and focussing screen
