View Full Version : Okay, so who bought the Rochester Camera Co. "King" 11x14 on eBay?

I came so close to bidding on it, but after doing some research I realized how little 11x14 film is available.

Buying a big camera that I couldn't use ultimately seemed pointless.

Absolutely right ... shoot 8x10 using a reducing back, use x-ray film or convert to wet plate ... many ways to play with 11x14 ...

I think 11x14 is a stock size for Ilford. I can always buy it from B&H or Adorama. Don't need to do the ulf order.

Funny...and I can't wait to get my hands on my next 11x14 camera. Paper negatives are another option that are wonderful to play with.

I was shooting my obscure, wacked size Rochester Universal this week. A wholeplate one!
