That looks pretty amazing..
It certainly does! Would have loved the 8x10 but 8x10 isn't in the cards anytime soon.

Nice, Chamonix makes great stuff. I have a Saber, by them. Was tempted by 45-n2 but went with a Canham DLC instead.
That is a great camera too! I love the versatility of the 45n-2. Works with my 65mm and would work easily with a 500mm telephoto with the extension board. And, from my calculations, even a 600mm for infinity work. I am usually either at the wide end or super long end. Though, 380mm is my longest right now. Can't wait to put it through its paces.
No more heavy over sized monorail - lens board adapters - messed up lens board locks - recessed lens board for the 65mm - and lack of bellows length. 4x5 is hard enough without those headaches.
Just to let you folks know -- I posted my Mamiya RB67 Pro SD outfit on the B&S today. If you are interested in a nice all manual 120/220 medium format system, please take a look!
Yeah zalmy there are some real neat pieces for large format. The Chamonix is a bargain for what it offers.

Ooohh, very nice! I have wanted to sell my Linhof Technika and get one of these instead, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
Thanks! At least with that transition you'd be able to use the same lens boards .
Just got through upgrading from LR3.6 to Photoshop CS6 (much to learn), and VueScan for my Canon FS2710 film scanner. My last (most recent) photo from the summer, taken with Canon 7 rangefinder, 100mm f3.5, Ektar 100.
I always enjoy this thread for the broad types of pictures that everyone posts, plus the large variance in the aesthetic by all the different formats.

A time is coming eventually when I pick up an RB or RZ. Wish it was today Until now, I'm enjoying my Mamiya 645 and the my M6. I just got back my very first roll of film through my M6 from the lab today, and here is my 4th shot:
After having shot through cameras with flying mirrors for years, I must admit it is nice to have a body+35mm that I can handhold reliably at 1/60 and 1/30 without VR/IS/IBIS/etc and 1/15 if I am careful. May the rangefinder live forever!
I had some old Portra 400 and 800 that expired back in '03 or '04 that has been sitting in my fridge all this time. I've been trying to get back to shooting more film the last year or so, so I'm burning through what's left in the fridge. I'm just about out of the color stock.
