Working with a 14x17 view camera, antique, 36" bed, and very difficult to almost impossible to attach to a tripod. This is a precarious and difficult process with a high probability of dropping the camera (disastrous results).
I am thinking of eliminating the tripod and making up a tilting platform the size of the camera, cover it with felt and just slide the camera on to the platform. The tilting platform would be placed onto a portable table.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
