    Kodak 2d modification

    Good luck with the show Ian

    Yeah it looks pretty simple as per link

    I don't mind not keeping integrity of camera, as long ad my woodwork is up to the same standard and so looks part
    Of the whole.

    I think that is the front standard support off a B&J rail camera of some sort. Not a bad idea, but I have a feeling most wooden camera purists would balk at using metal.

    Looks like the rear standard of my 5x7 B&J view camera,, which is real shaky.The front standard of the 5x7 B&J view camera would be more sound.

    A few pics of my work horse 2D. I can't complain about the mod, it's functional and works quite well.

    Why the wooden "lintel" rather than the brass band on the stock camera? It seems like you've limited your front rise at almost none.

    I ended up removing the lintal after trying it out. The front standard was a complete build and the original was left intact. I no longer have this camera and the new owner went back to the original 2-D front standard.
