camera. Just finishing up some Ilford 120, to test the RB67.

The RB67 works

Yeah and a nice subject - didn't know the title meant Land as in Edwin. I have one of those (thrift store find and too cool looking) - have you figured out a way to use yours? I was thinking maybe a pinhole style on direct positive (if I ever get around to trying it).

Land. Edwin. One of my photographic heroes.

I have a 95A as well as some of the 80 series (exact model slips my mind atm). My husband swears with the larger models you can shoot 4x5 with them (provided the lens quality is still there). Many of these models have modifications for use, you just have to put in some effort tinkering. For me it's generally not worth it if you have suspect bellows or poor lenses.

Mine are in a display case because they are still so gorgeous to behold!

Edit: it's the 800 series that can be modified to accept 4x5...those things are beasts!

To try it before modification, you can just put a sheet of 4x5 in it and use it. It gives very distinctive look. I like it.

When I got mine I thought geez this must weigh 5 lbs - put it on the bathroom scale which is less than accurate but yeah, it weighs about five pounds. And now I think I've sufficiently helped get this thread off topic and heading into another part of the forum!

Hi Sharon... It's only a display piece in the studio. Never given it much thought about using. I wish I had a 1.00 for every picture my father took with his.
