Hi, all you field camera users.
I am slipping down (from 8x10 and 5x7) the large format ladder, as I get more mobile. I shot again with a Hasselblad this year and really liked the convenience but the negs are just so tiny. I have a 1938 Speed Graphic. It measures up square and true but it is heavy. I went to a store to check out the Toyo CF, which is not heavy. It seems about the same build quality as my Graphic, just lighter. I am thinking I may as well just cast off the shutter guts and rangefinder from the Graphic and come pretty close to that Toyo, up a pound or two maybe. Am I way off in my perceptions here?
