    Welcome to the Forum from another Scandinavian.
    Chamonix is a great camera. Although i only own the 8x10 version so can't speak specifically for the 4x5 but the build quality and functionality is excellent.
    Shan Hao is also a good inexpensive camera with more movements than most of it's competitors, in particular the rear movements if that is what you are looking for.

    Turns out, I couldn't wait for the 30 days to get access to the classifieds

    I got a nice deal on Sinar F1 with rail extensions and two bellows that should be on their way to Finland as I type this. Other bits and pieces are making their way around the world too, like film holders, polaroid back, remote shutter release, loupe, and a basic 210mm lens. The lens was attached to an old Calumet 4x5 camera, so I will actually have two LF bodies for Christmas. How did that happen?

    Welcome Aboard!

    Large format is terrific!

    Plus the whole "my camera is bigger than yours" is fun!
