I felt like i was learning how to use these rubber tanks and racks but i had done it before way back. My Camera is a Calumet Cambo NX (made in Holland!?) and my only lens is a 210 Fujinon. Both of which i got new from Calumet about 15 years ago. On the Fujinon Calumet at the time they had Fujinon mainly Nikon and Fujinon and both the same price. At the time i was aware Avedon was using Fujinon so Fujinon did not sound so bad when they said they were out of Nikon 210's. I slightly regretted that later. The lens does not make me want to sing and dance it will be gone from me someday soon and my system of 4x5 glass I anticipate being mainly JSK: Schneider The Cambo NX has an amazing amount of swings and tilts and shifts all ridiculously numbered. I'm looking for a field camera wood or Technical metal to shoot 4x5 for most things. My thumbnails will be clickable in a few hours. http://www.markrabiner.com/Catagorypages/Halloween2001.html Mark Rabiner Portland, Oregon USA http://www.markrabiner.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
