This Ikeda (made by Nagaoka) 4X5 camera is one of the lightest and smallest field cameras ever made, at 2.6LB. (1.15KG) This camera is the ideal tool for hikers and backpackers. Along with a nice set of lenses, this is a great outdoors 4X5 field camera kit. There is not much this camera cannot do in the field or studio. This later model Nagaoka has a retro moving rear standard, adjustable position front standard (which allows for up to 15 degree front swing) and more.
