I have a Horseman FA 4x5 Field camera with the standard synthetic "leather" bellows. When I am done with a shot and breaking down the gear, I find that it is quite tedious getting the bellows to fold up nicely inside the housing (instead of the bellows folding on the manufacurter's folds it just sort of folds where it wants to resulting in a big mess). Am I missing something? I also fear that the bellows will never fold up correctly again since a few times I was rushed for time and had to just let the bellows fold up in a random way which created false folds. Any ideas?
Thanks.
