Default Taking Sharp Photos Using a 6x9 Folding Camera

This is why nearly all attempts to use a 6x9 folder fail
at this first hurdle - the camera was not up to the task. Very few

Nice post and also the reasons I like the 6 X 4.5 folders better. The
6X9 chromes are nice but with the film flatness issues etc I get better
results from the smaller negs most of the time, especially when hand
holding the camera and shooting neg film. I've also found the models
that don't use front cell focusing work better for infinity shooting,
the front cell focusing models appear to be optimized for "portrait"
distances?
