SW23S
An extremely lightweight non-folding 6x9 view camera, with the extreme wide-angle ability of the SW23, but the extra extension and back center tilts of the 23S. (Other combinations are also available.) A favourite of architectural photographers. Constructed entirely of quarter-sawn Macassar ebony heartwood and solid titanium. Optional back extender 692 and/or extension tubes enable the use of longer lenses. • Ebony and titanium construction: no vibration or sway, even at maximum extension. Complete stability is assured. • 35mm lens usable with 10mm recessed lensboard, 38mm-47mm lenses usable with flatboard, without restricting movements. • Triple-draw bellows extension, allowing front and back focus • Light, versatile, easy to use • Accepts Linhof-type 4x5 lensboards • Accepts 6x9 Graphic Standard roll film holders (Horseman, Mamiya RB67 etc.) Roll film holders may be removed without dismounting focusing screen. |
