Surely it's 3500mm? ;)

Wot! No bellows?
Good to see the first prototype of the LF digital camera, anyway. Obviously there is a little work needed for portability...

The shot you can't see is the one in which Helen attached the flash and vaporised half the NEC :!: :roll: :lol:

Good to see a couple of familiar faces at the show - I see Linhof have a new Technika out - drool, drool.
I must be one of the few people to come out of the show with a large smile on my face. I had taken my scanner down to give to the respective guys there to forward onto London. They'd put it in their big truck ...... which got stolen that night (or the next) so I get a brand new scanner out of the deal.
How about that!!

:oops: caught again :) If you're good, I'll give you a lend of my newly acquired Fuji G617 when we get to Scarborough. We've really got to do something to wean you off this awful digital habit; it can affect your eyesight, you know :shock:

A very desirable camera, although I find the format too narrow for my personal preference, as for a nice Horseman 6x12 next Christmas, well....................."Yes please Santa!" :wink:

Keith, why not get a 6x12 back for 4x5 rather than starting again?
