Wonderful and massive! The Linhof Stativ tripod of the same era is highly recommended as it mates perfectly with the rail clamp. Light pressure on the knobs secures everything. They don’t make things like this anymore.

Looking around, here Athens very rare, seen some Japan after import and shipment coasts their up double the original price.
What I have read, on ebay-- prices start at 150,euros plus shipment + 50euros -- import taxes !!! THEN 65 euros per one, sooo... total 265 euros per one.
And it goes something like that. for now at least . I am still on it looking all around.

What I have read, on ebay-- prices start at 60 euros for what looks like holders that photographed WWI && WWII.
And then there is where the film holders start at 150,euros and up &up&up 300euros for ONE!? plus shipment + 50euros -- import taxes !!! THEN 65 euros per one, sooo... total 265 euros per one.
And it goes something like that, I am still on it looking all around.
See why, D.I.Y.
BTW 18x24cm holders will fit 8x10 cameras, holders are same outer dimensions, 18x24cm film is slightly smaller than 8x10. Metric sized film you can get in European shops and around. Kodak 18x24cm Mammography film is very cheap compared to pan film
