I've come to terms with the fact that I only use my Deardorff V8 for portraits, and almost always in "the studio". I've also come to terms with the fact that, as beautiful as the 'dorff, is, it's just not as stable at full extension as I'd like, and since I almost always use it more or less extended, maybe it's not the best camera for me? I'm not really interested in a Studio camera, so that leaves, what? A monorail, or a Calumet C1? DO any of the 8x10 monorails have 6x6 lens boards? Can anyone recommend an 8x10 monorail especially well suited to portrait work?
