Bender is closed

[redwoodtwig]

I read with mounting interest the page at http://www.largeformatphotography.info/bender.html, however, when I sent to the bender site, I found this:

PLEASE READ ! ! !
We are sorry, but Bender Photographic is CLOSED. We have sold our buildings, ceased production, and will not be selling view cameras or other Bender Photographic items in the future. Please do not send orders for products as they WILL NOT BE FILLED. This applies to ALL Bender Photographic products, including pinhole cameras. If you currently own a Bender View Camera and need product support, please email us (mrbender at benderphoto dot com) to see if we can get to the parts you may need.


Probably ought to be mentioned near the beginning of your article. Sure would be nice if someone else were to take up that niche, though.

You can sometimes find the bender kit on ebay.
