    Help wanted with ULF Camera Specs Database

    I'm collecting key data on ULF cameras - specs, prices etc and was wondering if anyone wanted to help fill up a spreadsheet - especially with the older F&S, B&J, Kodak, Deardorff, Empire, Korona options. You can go here to edit it. Thanks for the help. No passwords etc needed.

    PS. I have limited the data to 7x17, 8x20, 11x14, and 14x17 which are probably the most reasonable ULF sizes these days (the later because of X-ray film). So I'm really only interested in those formats. Thanks.

    i've added some info for the Folmer and Scwhing 7x17 entry. I don't have the camera in front of me to add more. Beware of vintage data from brochures on the older cameras. The catalog states the 7x17 F&S weighs 8 pounds when in fact it weighs 10.

    Hello Angus, if you check here (on Page 9)...
    You should be able to update Row 26 of your Spreadsheet -- For the 11x14 Wisner:

    I added Deardorff V11 from Deardorff official website (that is discontinued?).

    Interesting and much needed analysis. Wait til you get to lenses/coverage. Now that's a spreadsheet that I want to see. (I know there are plenty of lens spreadsheets. But the appropriate one here is ULF only)

    Wow, I have three of the four sizes mentioned but I can't help with the data base as I built them all myself. Sorry Angus :-(

    Need to start a new category: "The Fitzgerald". If you dedicate yourself to ULF production like Richard Ritter, I don't see why not!
