New Intrepid MK3 8X10 Smells Great!

[Tin Can]

Just got it now, pics tomorrow

Looks and feels fantastic

SINAR Lens boards fit perfectly, new style, old is thinner

RED BELLOWS are a great RED, way nicer than their #1 4X5 red

Very happy!

More design points tomorrow, all good

There is an important game tomorrow!

I will watch and I never watch team sports

Glad you are happy, i just bought the 4x5, and its got issues, but i too got red bellows and LOVE THEM.

After going on their website it looks exactly like the 4x5, the only difference is the rear tilt is slightly different.

I bought Intrepid's first 4X5 camera design years ago, sold it for no loss after 2 years

I really like MK 3 8X10 bellows stack squarely, no strut scraping causing bellows wear

The built in handles, no excess parts

SINAR or HORSEMAN lens boards, which also allows SINAR shutter

I will install removable Packard shutter for barrel lens or broken center shutters

I am very happy with double strut rear design

This will match up with my FLM CP 38L CF with 100mm bowl tripod and QR

JIC

Usage will mostly be landscape orientation

I use other gear for studio portraits and still life
