Horseman VH 6 x 9 field camera -- Advice?

[Howard Slavitt]

I have an opportunity to pick up a Horseman VH 6 x9 field camera in nice conditi on for about $1,200 (the new price is $2,100). Does anyone have experience with this camera? This would be my first view camera. I will use it almost exclusi vely for landscapes. I like to day hike and backpack and want to have view came ra movements, but be able to use roll film because it is much less expensive tha n 4 x 5.
