WTB: 8x10 or whole plate field camera

[Gareth Gardner]

Hi, just thought I'd drop a line to see if anyone is interested in selling their 8x10 or whole plate field camera. I'm looking for something new or old, but good condition with light-tight bellows and - if it's vintage - suitable lens panels etc to ensure that the camera is fully functional.

It's for a project - with the aim of processing and contact printing my own negs - so the camera must be in good working order.

It would need to be relatively lightweight, as I would out-and-about shooting the urban environment. So I'm thinking of something along the size/scale of a Shen Hao, Chamonix, Gandolfi, Wehman etc.

Or if anyone spots a good one secondhand somewhere, please let me know about it!!

I'm a professional photographer based in west London. This camera is for a personal project, so I'm not looking to spend a fortune. Feel free to ask me anything else.
