Re: Show off your camera!
Here's my 5x7 Premo with bag bellows for a Ektar 127mm lens Works well with limited movement. Currently I'm in Colombia having a great time with it. Good conversation starter. Lab owner in Bogota wanted to display it. At 67 and retired it provides a lot of joy.

I use a plastic mesh (gutter guards) in a double 120 tank for 4x5s and a tea canister for the 5x7s. Works really well. Never had any problems with scratching (emulsion on the inside). Generally I use rodinal or hc110 @ 1:100 stand developing. Keeping it all basic is a bonus for me. Yes 127 on5x7 was a surprise for me too. Though I've seen a 5x7 hobo with a 90 on it.
Hope you do well.

Well it's no field camera ... hiking DOWN to the river was no problem, just took awhile hiking back up.

Sorry to double dip. Toyo 45AII with Mr. Galli mid-19th century no name meniscus. Still trying to get the hang of this lens.

RSW45 this morning attempting to shoot relatively close with a lens this camera totally wasn't designed for - Fuji 300/8 Tele.
And yes, the tripod isn't level.....
