One of the rare times that I've followed the adage of "Anything more than 500 yards from the car just isn't photogenic" (Edward Weston, or maybe Brett?).
However I had just gotten back from a 2-mile hike so maybe not .
Also, one of the few times I've used the 450M on my 8x10. Developing 6 sheets tonight.

I recently received this Burke & James Grover 4x5? monorail in poor condition. In addition to being covered in mold, dust, dirt and nicotine, it had the front of the bellows separated from the front and the back of the camera was missing. The front and back movements were also frozen in place.
ETA After a bit of investigation it turns out that this B&J camera is really a 5x7. I need to make or buy a proper 5x7 back for it now.
After much cleaning, adjusting and grafting a Calumet C-400 rotating back to the camera.

The one on the left is an Ihagee Patent Duplex #720 with a Xenar 13.5cm/4.5 in a Deckel Compur:
Middle is a Zeiss Ikon Maximar 207/7 with a Zeiss Tessar 13.5cm/4.5
On the right is a Zeiss Ikon Taxo 126/7 with a Novar Anistigmat 13.5cm/6.3 in a Darval shutter that is like new in the box with 5 metal film packs in wrapers. Also there is a Taxo-Cameras directions sheet by Zeiss Ikon AG. Dresden, a ZI exposure table, a Rx sheet by Arthur Rattenni M.D. Providence RI for Super-XX Panchromatic and some 9x12 Ektachromes.
I've used the Maximar and the Ihagee but I haven't used the Taxo yet.
