I was reading the new products forum, and I saw a note that bender has closed down. Checked it out myself, and they are! here is from their web site:
http://www.benderphoto.com/index.htm
Bender Photographic will be CLOSED from November 2008 until future notice. We have sold our buildings, ceased production, and will not be selling view cameras or other Bender Photographic items for at least a year, possibly longer. Please do not send orders for products as they WILL NOT BE FILLED. This applies to ALL Bender Photographic products, including pinhole cameras.
So what happened? Was there any news here that I missed? Are they coming back for sure? Is my Bender (see avatar) now a collector's item? :D
