Nice camera J, you're in Pearl River, not too far from Madisonville. PM me, I'd like to get together and maybe learn something about wet plate! Luis
Linhof Kardan TE with 4x10 back from China. Since getting this I have also obtained a Linhof Kardan TL which is more substantial with its L-shaped standards. Need to adapt the 4x10 back to the TL and find a 5x7 back for the TL. Hope local machine shop will be able to make the part to slide on to the TL's dovetail track.
My Plaubel Automatic Makiflex (converted to Pecoflex) using the Plaubel Pecoflex adapter. Peco Jr front end basically.
Shown with the 360mm Schneider F5.5 Tele-Arton. This will be getting some use this year
This camera will shoot a 9x9cm image onto a 4x5" or 9x12cm sheet of film.
Shown with hacked Mamiya RB67 Stovepipe Viewfinder, which I prefer most of the time.

That's a neat setup. Is it a focal plan shutter? I don't see a shutter on the lens.
Yes it's focal plane. I've got three of these, been collecting the whole system for thirty five years.

Nice to see the set up—I've enjoyed looking at this series. Will these be platinum prints?
Once I feel like I have a final set of these... I'm sure I'll produce an edition of platinums. Those will come from various captures; digital, 4x5 and 8x10.
