I've always had to do more with less, and still do.
I currently have an Omega 45D, and 2 B&J 5x7's.
My Apo Raptars are the equal of RD Artars at a fraction of the price.
Sooo...it's not what you have, it's what you do with it.

I hope the OP has figured out what camera turns him on, buys one, and takes some pictures that makes him satisfied. Maybe coming back to this forum in the future is possible.

I've got to assume that the photo was taken with a very expensive camera -- because it's so nice!

I own a Toyo Field Camera. I don't use it all that often because of the price of buying and developing film, but it's a great camera that does its job. I reccomend it, and it seems from a quick search that they're not all that hard to find for sale.
Having used the Omega 45(fill in the letter) in years past, it is a FAR more capable monorail camera than most would know or believe at a very modest $..
Does what is demanded or expected within it's design limits and in many ways better than a light weight field folder... attributes of a monorail -vs- flat bed folder.
APO raptar are same process lens design formula as APO artar.. optical performance would be similar if not identical in many ways to the APO artar, APO ronar, APO nikkor...
