The "Perfect" field camera does not exist. What might be perfect for you, would not necessarily be perfect for me.

Baby Deardorff? for close to 600mm maybe use a 2x teleconverter on a 240 or 305 G Claron?

Basically looking for a backpack camera (I'll likely order it):
- wreaks quality
You want to punish quality, or you want a low quality camera?
From Dictionary.com:
"Wreaks":
1. to inflict or execute (punishment, vengeance, etc.): They wreaked havoc on the enemy.
2. to carry out the promptings of (one's rage, ill humor, will, desire, etc.), as on a victim or object: He wreaked his anger on the office staff.
I'm missing something...

Politically, aerodynamically, and fashionably incorrect.
I think he meant "reeks" but if you look at the definition it isn't appropriate either, it is just a common phrase. Not that I care, we all make mistakes. Don't let me near a French menu or wine list.
The Linhof TK45S accepts lenses from the 35mm 4.5 Apo Grandagon to the 400mm 5.6 Apo Tele Xenar. For the shorter lenses you would need the wide angle bellows and the camera can take longer lenses with the use of a Wista Extended Lens Board set.
A TK45S collapsed is about the size of a hard back book. It opens and closes in mere seconds, Has optical axis tilts and swings in front and back as well as front and rear shift and front rise/fall and rear rise. All metal and it, like a Master Techinka Classic, 2000 or 3000 is simply the definition of quality.
It has an international back so it accepts all roll backs, that would include the true 612 Linhof Techno Rollex which is a 56x120mm image area compared to the 56x110 or 112mm area of the other 612 backs. Accepts all Linhof Kardan and Technika viewing aids and, as it is a Linhof, accepts the single most common lens board for the Technika IV, V and Master cameras.
No, no confusion. "Wreaks" means to cause something to happen. That something is usually bad. "Reeks" means to smell bad, though many use it to mean just "smell".
"I want a camera that smells of quality" is I'm sure what the OP meant.

I've done so. Many times. Using colorful descriptions that have garnered pained expressions from passersby. Apple's spelling replacement algorithm for the iPhone is particularly appalling--almost as bad as my accuracy on that tiny touch keyboard with my big, fat thumbs.
