Does anyone know the specs or where I can find the specs for the F1? I can't seem to find the information on the Chamonix website. I am mostly interested in the minimum and maximum bellows draw and the extent of rear movements available.
Thanks!
Lenses-Same as the other chamonix 4x5's. movements almost the same. No rear shift or rise.
I use a 65 and a 450mm with mine allthe time. I've made extension brackets for the 450mm. Camera will go to 500mm.
While they don't provide the answer to your specific questions, these articles will be of interest.

Mine is on its way to me at the moment. It's arrived in the UK, so I'm now waiting to see if there are going to be Customs charges to pay.

Hugo was very good at answering questions before I bought mine, you just have to remember he's both busy and in China so response times were usually the next day.

Hugo doesn't live in China. He's here in the states.

I have a funny feeling that you'll be lucky with customs. Must have been a friday afternoon when the guys at the factory filled in the customs form for my camera, because it was declared with a value of $5. Innocent mistake I'm sure, we're all human afterall.
I had a package delivered today from China of $50 worth of samples.
Very nice!
I've just unwrapped and had a brief play. Rather different to the faithful Tachihara.

Oh, my mistake. I thought he lived there as the company's there and he was usually replying to me in the middle of the night
