Hello
I think I'm going to sell my Horseman SW612 and move up to 5x4. I need a portable, handholdable camera, mainly for landscapes and architecture, shooting 6x12 cm on 120 mostly. I think the Cambo Wide with a 6x12 back would fit the bill, and l would be able to shoot 5x4" if I wanted to.
However, I am confused about what models are / were available. Cambo's website has the new DS models which are built for digital backs although can be used with film I think. It doesnt matter anyway - these models are likely to be out of my price range :)
Can anyone shed some light as to the models of the discontinued range - what's the difference between the 650 and the 900 - is it simply the lens?
Is the film back fitting the international standard - so finding a 6x12 back wouldnt be too much of a problem? Are they handholdable?
Thanks in advance
