scanning 5x4 negs & trannies

Hi everyone All my previous b&w work in Lf has been printed conventionally using an enlarger. Colour work has been scanned professionally (Imacon & drum scanners). The cost of this is pretty high and a flatbed scanner seems a cost effective route. I know many of you use flatbed scanners and somewher...

5X4 camera for 6X17 back

Does anyone have experience of the Da Yi 6X17 RF back. I have had difficulties in using this with the 90mm SA Schneider (Symar). I have made a new recessed lensboard but still cannot focus on infinity(with adapted Bender camera and bag bellows). If I recess the lensboard further I would not be able ...
