View Full Version : What is this camera?
My friend got it from his university lab. It has a label Leitz and Linhof. Can anyone tell me what kind of camera it is? What kind of lensboard it takes?
Thanks
Microscope/copy camera.
I can't see it being anything else. Looks like the MPP cameras used for repro work but were later turned horizontal for 'real' use.
So, can he use it to shoot 4X5?
yes, with a bit of modifying.
unless you want photo's of the floor, you need to make a front standard, and adapt the front lens/board to it. OR buy new longer bellows and attach them to a modern front standard (sinar/calumet/etc) then attach THAT to the camera. It might be better in the long run to do it that way round.
Ok, I see. Thanks.
