Apologies for no TinyURL. That's a decision made by Firefox. :-(

The weight is good, but with the planet awash in used 4x5 gear, buying a new one really isn't needed, unless you just happen to need that particular one. What I never figured out is why didn't they ever invent a spring-back loaded multiple-shot 4x5 with a drop-box for finished shots just below the back? Would save a lot of tedium. But maybe someone did develop something like that way back when and I just didn't see it?


It's been many, many years ago, but I recall using a six exposure 4x5
holder. You loaded six sheets of 4x5 film into six thin metal holders,
then loaded them into the pack. After shooting one exposure, you did a
push-pull routine that pushed the exposure holder onto the back of the
stack, and put a fresh holder in front.
