Hi Guys,
Is there anyone in Southern Ontario who has a working 20x24 camera?

Oh, my 14x17 isn't big enough for you?!?
When I was 16 I thought my father the stupidest man in the world; when I reached 21, I was astounded by how much he had learned in just 5 years!

14x17, that's a pocket camera... I'm looking for something a man would use.
LOL

Yeah, Arnold Schwarzenegger might call photographers who use 14X17" cameras "girlie men." You need to go up to at least 18X22" in size before getting into the category of a "real man camera."Originally Posted by Robert Skeoch

is there even 18x22.
18X22" is the "Mammoth" plate, used in the 19th-century by photographers like Carleton E. Watkins, Mathew Brady, William Henry Jackson, and Eadweard Muybridge.
I saw some albumen prints from Mammoth plates by Watkins some years ago in Austin at the Ransom Center at UT and they were breath taking.

More recently, Michael A. Smith (of Azo and Lodima fame) has made pictures in 18x22.
Is he actually using it now or does he just have one?
