Hello,
I'm looking for a 4x5 field camera as I want to start portraying detached houses (which means not very high) in the suburbs. For that I need movements, especially front rise (correct me if I'm wrong), which pushes me into large format. Monorails are rather heavy and bulky, when light weight is preferable, and would probably require a new tripod so I decided to seek for a field camera. To be able to photograph in colour I need a roll film back (6x7 but a panoramic option is also tempting), as otherwise, costs of 4x5 colour sheets would rather ruin me At last, a wide angle lens would be nice to have. Now I have a kind question to you: which camera would you suggest? I have an opportunity to purchase a MPP VII camera with a Rodenstock 90/8 (yet on 6x7 this is a standard focal lenght) in, as it seems, a very good condition. Would it fit my needs? Down to which focal length on 6x7 will this camera work?
Kind regards,
Chris
