BD>HN> Heh, try hauling an 8X10 field camera up and down a mountain..
BD> Honestly can't recall having climbed any mountains with one but
BD> I've carried the darn things just about everywhere else!  
Well you don't have too many mountains in Lousiana! C'mon out west
and you don't get a choice!
BD>HN> ..a dozen film holders, several lenses, tripod, ect. ect...I do
BD>HN> it with 4X5 and that's the only reason I'll never go 8X10! 
BD> Once you develop the necessary muscle tone it won't be so hard!
Sure, easy for you to say...you ain't the one trying to haul all that
stuff up the trail at 5 am!
BD>BD> Besides, I sold the only Minox I ever had many years ago, for the
BD>BD> magnificent sum of $5..  Yeah, I know, wish I had that to do over
BD>BD> again, too!  O:-)
BD>HN> Hmmm, wanna sell any of your other stuff?  
BD> I think there's one more 8x10 view in storage, with two or three
BD> holders and a 15" lens..  What do you offer???  hehhehheh
Hmmmm, I could use a nice biiiig camera...I need to get back into shape!
Is the bellows still light tight? I'd be more interested in 4X5 gear.
chat with you soon!
