Everything about my Ebony is well thoughtout - except the focusing. Clearly the camera was either designed by a photograrapher with three hands or an engineer who does not take pictures. Unlock on one side and focus on the other means you are constantly changing hands with the loupe. Front tilt/swing is even more maddening. I have taken to grapping the front standard with my left hand and dragging it to focus. Any good workarounds? Sinar has the right idea - all the controls on the same side. But my F2 and the requisit tripod weigh a ton in comparison. Any field cameras have the controls on one side?
