    Non folding field cameras

    Besides the Ebony 45SU are there any other non folding field cameras.

    Mike Walker makes the Titan XL Wide in 4x5, 5x7 and 8x10. These are designed for use with wide angle lenses. http://www.walkercameras.com/index.html

    Shane,

    You can get the Shen Hao XPO with around 400mm extension.

    Shane, before I picked up the Toyo-View monorail last week, I was looking at these, one of which is a non folder.

    You have an 8x10 amongst your bevy of beauties, don't you?

    Cambo wide comes to mind, depending on your definition of field cameras.

    I don't have a Titan XL Wide, but I do have a 4x5 Titan SF, which I think is a great camera. The XL Wides are interesting, but they are for a particular kind of user, who prefers the wide view. Just thought I would throw it out there for you.

    The shen hao's seem to be ebony knock-offs so that may be your best bet if you're looking for that style.
    The svedovsky doesn't have ANY rear movements which is a deal-breaker for me.

    Not sure that I understand what a "non-folding Field Camera" actually is.

    • A Hobo.
    • A Fotoman.
    • The WanderLust TravelWide . . .whenever it comes out and goes into production.


    All of these were designed to be used in the field and none of them fold.

    Am I on-the-money or way off base here?

    There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!
