Canham metal cameras
Does anyone have any info on how well (or otherwise) the metal Canham cameras function in use? They look well specced on 'paper'. Thanks.

Dennis,
general consensus on Canham cameras (esp. the metal ones) on various forums (fori?) is that they are well designed, specced and built. I unfortunately haven't seen one life, so I can't comment much better, but you might try to do a search on www.largeformatphotography.info which has a larger user base than we have here. Folks there are generally quite helpful and Ihave seen quite a few positive comments regarding Canhams.

Ablative surely, as there is no movement with regard to location. Therefore foris. Unless you wish to use a preposition followed by the dative or accusative. Excuse the tetratrichotomy.

Carter! Pay attention at the back! This is a quality forum - you're no longer apud APUGem.
