Probably make money selling a used Intrepid 8x10. You can't get them anywhere used or new. If someone is selling one for half-price, I'll buy it. My daughter is currently using my rickety old Century 8x10 in school. I could upgrade her.

I've been reading this thread with great interest –
As the reason I got into LF was I really like the look of 8x10.
But the weight with all the extras was too much for me. A light camera would mean lighter tripod - that would help in the equation.
Curious if my existing lens would work on the 8x10 intrepid? It's the 12" commercial ektar?
Is it too heavy?
Thanks!
the UK VAT is aready included in the £520 and a quick google shows no import duty from UK into US under $800! score!

If you want a classic, look for a Century Universal. Much lighter than a 'dorff. Also the Tachihara double extension is another svelte runner-up which might be worth considering.
