Picked up a Bender 4x5 with an Ilex-Calumet 215mm f/4.8 from craigslist
The rail wobbled a lot in the Bender rail clamp and the threaded insert was set in too deep for my tripod screw to connect securely. Replaced it with the one from my Calumet 45N and it seems very solid.

Re: Show off your Large Format camera!
Cute. Does the viewer contain a magnifier?
Re: Show off your Large Format camera!
Very nice! Camouflage!
I may need to make a magnifier viewer like yours.

That's absolutely beautiful. I gave someone all my 5x7 holders so I wouldn't be tempted again. Best sheet film format ever! I'm jealous.
Re: Show off your Large Format camera!
Yes, the viewer has a binocular magnifier in the black eyepiece and I find that I am much more accurate when I focus using both eyes.
