With all the 4x5 interest around here lately, I'd like to point out a field
camera that my brother purchased last summer. When folded up, it's barely
larger than a stack of three or four 4x5 film holders! While it's not a
Sinar (his normal LF axe), it is nicely built and has good movement
controls. He carries the camera, film holders and lenses in a backpack, so
this is an ideal camera for "hiking in."

and click on "Camera info" in the bottom left-hand corner.
My brother got the fixed-bellows/brass (serial #0000008!). You haven't
lived until you've taken railroad photos with a 4x5 - it takes a SERIOUS
effort, but gives amazing results.
OM content - at least in an OM viewfinder, the view isn't upside down and
backwards!
