Given up trying to find a 10x8. Might be a bit big to handle anyway, so am thinking of 5x7. Anyone have a really good condition one for sale - Gandolfi original or similar? Thanks.

I`ve got an old Russian FKD 13cm X 18cm plate Camera in the attic. It would need modifying to accept 5x7 sheet-film though.

Have you looked at FFordes who have a nice looking Jon Nesbitt 5x7 for 399ukp which sounds pretty good to me. Dont know about condition or whatever.

In case you haven't seen it, there is a 5x7 Gandolfi Traditional on the auction site as we speak. It also has a 5x4 reducing back, but no mention of holders and it says it has a couple of pinholes in the bellows.
