    Re: The Camera and Technique of Andreas Gursky (Then And Now)

    Not that it’s really all that important, but can anyone here figure out which Linhof Master Technika Gursky is using here for his first set (2007) of North Korea shots? (This photo is from 2006/2007.) I’m not sure what year the Master Technika 3000 came out, but that’s what I originally thought this pair was. Now I’m wondering if these are possibly the original, or rather 1st version, Master Technikas.

    Can anyone take a crack at this?

    Neither of those are 3000 models because the 3000 has an extra knob on the bottom of the camera.

    You'd have to see if it had the internal wide angle track to know if it was a 2000. Otherwise, I think I see the ratchet lever for the front rise on the camera he is operating, making it a Master Technika.

    I'm confused about the Master Technika 2000. Aren't the 2 knobs that are usually on the top (like for the regular 1st Master Technika and the Master Technika 3000), on the top sides of the Master Technika 2000?

    Pictures I see online seem to show both options. Not sure but maybe some pics are just wrong. I saw eBay listing of the 2000 with the side top knobs so you are probably correct.

    This is probably nearly impossible to answer, but can anyone take a guess at what camera he's using here? Looks like there's a dial on the left-top side of the camera and a 3-way bubble level in the middle. (This image was taken in 2007/2008, if that helps.)
