Linhof Technikardan 45S 4X5 camera + 135mm+210mm lenses film holders NEW BELLOWS (#1918)

The Linhof Technikardan 45S is an improved version of the the already incredible Technikardan 45 design. It is a combination of a monorail technical camera with a folding field camera, making it the best of both worlds. All the benefits of a field camera: small, light and easily portable on one hand, and on the other, it has near unlimited movements, massive shifts and rise/fall travel, exceptional ridigity not found on any other folding camera and excellent precision controls. This super versatile camera is paired with two modern, high end, MC (EBC) lenses and is ready to go out of the box. The 45S version adds various precision controls (like center stops and focusing scales as well as better construction).
