![Calumet C1 8X10 Field Camera with Fujinar 250mm F4.5 Lens + Holder]()
The legendary Calumet C1 camera is a versatile and easy-to-use LF system. This is the newer green version, which is 33% lighter than the original black camera.
Excellent, original finish and Calumet's newer-style, nylon bellows. Lots of movement, huge bellows draw, easy to fold and carry with everything you need (in the studio or in the field). All metal construction and nylon-fabric bellows make this camera very solid and rigid, but also extremely durable and reliable.
