4x5 RF

[Srono]

Some of us tried to convert the polaroid 110b to become a 4x5 coupled RF.

I recently heard a news that Chamonix will come out with a 4x5 handheld RF soon. My friend received the prototype.

Come with optional wooden handle... something similar to Alpa http://www.alpa.ch/en/products/cameras/camera-bodies/alpa-12-swa-rosewoodblack.html

Agreed.. You can get a the bellow packfilm Polaroid model 100,250,350 and 450
that come with Zeiss finder. Modified to 4x5 is not hard but a lot of time needed.

All you need is a graflok assembly and a shutter lens.
Most of this bellow Polaroid has a range of 114mm I think..

Can you fit any LF lens to it?

There already a very famous 4x5 rangefinder camera brand in the market, even Brad Pitt own one custom made given to him as a birthday gift from his wife Angelina Jolie. Check this out littman 45 single

You can send the lens to them first to Chamonix custom makes it for you.
I heard that the first 30 pieces were already sold out.

@Singcott: yah, but Litman was customized from on Polaroid 110 as well.

I rather send to Razzledog, cheaper and closer to us, Littman is just overprice and greedy guy, he used to threaten to sue people who covert Polaroid 110 series to 4X5 camera, claimed that he's the inventor that copyright belong to him.
