Hello,
I am interested in an 8x10 camera. Since I will have to carry it around quite a bit, weight is an important consideration for me. I have an Arca Swiss F Classic 6x9 (and am very happy with it) and one option is to upgrade it to an 8x10 form at. Who has experience with this camera in 8x10? Is that a good choice or would you recommend against the upgrade and get another camera instead?
Wilfried, I don't know what it would cost to upgrade your Arca, but I would suggest taking a look a Peter Gowland's ultralight 8x10 if wieght is a big concern. You might find it lighter and cheaper than the upgrade. He has a website: www.petergowland.com Good luck and welcome to 8x10!
