:Landscape camera
has anyone ever used the horseman 2x3 cameras for landscape work? i was
considering either a pentax 534, or 67 system, but see that these systems are in the same ball park, cost-wise. i would--of course--love the movements available, and being able to use some lenses i already own, but have never used one, so i am looking for any experienced owner's stories. |

I used to use a 2x3 Speed Graphic for much landscape work. The tilt is all you really need to do near-far shots with the foreground also in focus. There are lots of them around (also the crown graphic without the back shutter) and they are fairly cheap. There are a wide variety of roll holders around as well in 6x6, 6x7 and 6x9 sizes. The small size of the lens board might limit what you can mount, but a #1 shutter will fit. Perhaps you can find a dealer that will rent you one with an option to buy so you can try it out. If you get a matching lens for the rangefinder you can even handhold without much problems in good light. |
