A note of clarification though. My 045n does the Scheimpflug too, with both front and rear standards.

In contento ed allegria
Notte e di vogliam passar!
I know this is an old thread, but I find myself asking the same question! A friend has a Wisner, so I was leaning. that way. Then I read all of the bad press on shoddy business practices on these forums, and on Photo.net, and I started looking again. I have owned a Zone VI (American made) 4x5, and currently own an Intrepid Mk4. That is what opened my mind up to Chamonix. I have been looking for the ease of use with the Intrepid, along with the stability, and flexible movements of the Wisner. So, I believe my hunt is on for a Chamonix F2. As I understand it, the asymmetrical back allows me to do what the Wisner TF back would do?
Do you know what the "asymetrical back" is and what it allows? Why is it better than the alternative. You don't want my opinion because I don't buy Chinese cameras. I have 4x5 Deardorff Special and Sinar F2's, so that's what I'm going to recommend, or another Zone VI. L
The 45N-2 does allow rear tilt. The best of the Metal vista cameras though is the 45 SP. I used one for 5 years in Grad school. My MFA was shooting in forest fires and it was great except no one make fire proof bellows...
