Toyo 45A

[Josh Cockroft]

I'm looking at buying said camera, have used them previously from uni and found them to be a really nice camera. Was wondering what kind of prices I should be looking at? I've seen one for around £150, would this be a good price?

Thanks, Josh.

Price will depend on age and condition. They don't have interchangeable bellows so be sure to check the bellows carefully. New bellows are available but add to the cost and unless you're handy, require a trip to the bellows maker. It is a fabulous camera, sturdy, rock solid, with enough bellows and movements for most use, certainly for nature-landscape. The bellows is not super long, but will accomodate a 360 tele, if I recall properly. Had I not had a milestone birthday and fulfilled my long time yearning for an Arca, I'd still be happily using mine.

Good luck.

Do you mean and Toyo AX or AII? If so, that is a great price if in good condition.

Perhaps there is an older model A which of course would cost much less.
