Shen Hao 5x7 question

[dcorgan]

To anyone familiar with the folding Shen Hao 5x7 cameras . . .
Does the ground glass back come off and rotate to allow both Portrait and Landscape formats?

Thanks in advance,
Dustin

Yes it does, it's fairly obvious how and easily done, so I won't write a description. Handle with care as always.

Thanks for the info.
I want to buy one, but only if it would switch btwn portrait and landscape.

Should give you some ideas.

There are 3 models; at least 2 have the sliding release that is shown above.
