Nice reference is this Brochure: https://www.pacificrimcamera.com/rl/00273/00273.pdf

I think the best way is to contact a member B.S.Kumar here - I have great experiece with getting replacement pieces for Toyo cameras from him. Another idea is to contact directly Toyo or its...

Thanks, this resource seems wery usefull, but not for me, as I am located in the middle of a Europe. So, any other way how to get to these materials?

Toyo 45A, GX and VX 125 for 4x5, Canham Wooden Field for 5x7 and 5x4 as well and Toyo F810MII and Deardorff 810 for 8x10. I have an old German 18x24 wooden...

Dear fellow photographers,

I am chiming in this thread with the question whether anyone of you have or willing to do a digital copy of a Toyo Robos manual. I have basic experience what to expect...

Most likely, you are searching filmholder like this:

These holders pass into back of this type:

Is that the older grey painted or newer mahogany version? And is that 13x18 or 18x24 variant? Nevertheless both of them (older and smaller for 100% as I have it as well) should have proprietary...

Hello everynoe,

I would like to ask a simple question, does the Toyo compendium (smaller one for Toyo Field 45A) fit on Canham Traditonal 5x7 camera? I own booth camera but not any compendiums....
