I am considering the purchase of a new Canham MQC 5x7 metal folder to basically replace my rather heavier Rittreck 5x7 and a recently rebuilt Tachi (or maybe it's a Tachi clone.) The Canham is about 4 pounds lighter than the admittedly solid Rittreck and has more bellows extension but the Rittreck and wooden Tachi are paid for.
My questions about the Canham are mostly
- how well does it lock down,
- how smoothly and easily does it set up
- how solid is it when locked down to shoot,
- how smoothly and how small does it fold for backpacking
- any other comments by people who have actually used the Canham and can compare to usage of the Rittreck, etc.
I would appreciate any actual user input.
Thank you!
