I'm thinking about moving up from medium format to LF. The Chamonix seems like a nice camera but which model. Price difference between the two won't affect my decision.
45F2 http://www.chamonixviewcamera.com/cameras/45f2 or
45H-1 http://www.chamonixviewcamera.com/cameras/45h1 or
other?
I shoot landscapes and some portraits. See my flickr page for an idea of the kind of shots I do.
Some issues. I don't intend to hike very far from the car where I'll keep it in the trunk. So can I get away with the fixed 45H-1 instead of the field camera 45F-2?
I use wide angle lenses. What are the limitation between the two cameras that I should consider realtive to setting adjustments tilts, etc?
What about longer lenses?
I have to admit I've never used LF so not happy about upside down views. Chamonix has a reflex viewfinder with a built-in 3x loupe or I can use the normal "upside-down" viewfinder with a separate loupe. Any recommendations or ideas?
Thanks. Alan.
