    Re: New 8x10 camera build

    Here is another update. I laid out many of the pieces for the final assembly. Polishing is done and assembly is next. It is starting to take shape and this image show many of the stainless steel pieces. The GG is not on and neither is the bellows. It does give me an idea of what the finished camera is going to look like. I must say I like what I see.

    If you're thinking x-ray film you might as well just jump to 14x17.

    Chris, you mean like this one I built! I built it because i could get 14x17 x-ray film. So I guess I should do a 14x36!!!!!

    I mean precisely like that!

    14x36 could be really nice. It's just a little bit longer rectangle than an anamorphic widescreen movie.
