I am looking for a Zigaline mirror for a large format camera, but don't know who makes them or where to purchase one from. Any suggestions of where to start looking?

Hi Barbie

Sinar makes mirrors for photograpic use for places where you not can point the cameralens directly to!

Don't really understand the question - I thought the Zigalign system was for enlargers.

The Zig-Align system can also be used for view cameras and for aligning copy work. Their website is www.zig-align.com. You can order from them.

If you want to align a view camera, it's easy and much less expensive to do it yourself. Buy two first surface mirrors (e.g. from Edmund Scientifics), glue one into a spare film holder. Have a small (1/4 inch) hole drilled into the other and glue it to the back of a spare lensboard. Peek through this hole from the outside to align the camera. (This will work with bellows in place.)
