I have been fiddling around with a Century Graphic for some time now and it is fun to use. Those 120 negs scan pretty well. Sure slows down the process of making pictures. Causes you to think a bit. There are some irritations with the camera however and I have been wondering about upgrading to a 4x5 Crown Graphic for some added flexibility with lenses and film types. I neither need nor want the focal plane shutter so the Crown is the logical choice so... what do you watch out for other than spring backs and the obvious effects of advancing age?
Along those lines but on a slightly different course, does the Calumet rf holder simply slide in the Graflok back as it appears that it will. Sure looks less cumbersome than the Graphic RF holders poking you in the nose.
Everyone's favorite shopping site is full of used stuff so choices abound, caveat emptor.
