    ...the bellows is perfect...just what you might expect .as good as my Sinar in fact...and the focusing screw is metal ( as are all of the knobs) and works really very well....tight and secure yet very responsive...

    The pictures on that link show cameras with either six or four knobs on the front standard. Which did you get? Does it have axial tilt?

    The stats list base tilt and center (axial?) tilt on the back.

    There doesn't seem to be a knob for center tilt on the back.

    Are they referring to center swing or shift?

    The camera looks great, although does anyone else think it's weird that:

    a) It's named BH Camera, which may or may not be meant to associate it with B&H photo in NY?

    b) The contact e-mail address is a gmail address?

    Since you got the camera just fine, I"m happy that it worked. I'd have been very wary of that site.

    Old Chinese proverb: "If you're going to copy a name, choose the biggest and the best".

    B&H Photovideo in NY has no connection to BH Camera in China.

    I have purchased small/low value stuff several times from this Seller.

    All arrived quickly and safely.

    when I contacted BH Cameras I thought the same initially...but to purchase they sent me an ebay page so I could then see that they had over 99% positive feedback on over 6000 purchases....I was able to track the progress of the delivery and it arrived 10 days after purchase as was suggested by their emails to me...The two images at the bottom of their page are from an earlier model...when I first made contact they changed some of the images as they said that the camera had been updated...so on my camera the front has separate rise and tilt knobs...the back tilts from the base....

    Hi I've been looking at this camera and it sounds very interesting. Celtic, are you in the UK? I would love to see one in the flesh.
