The Technikardan is a cross between a monorail studio camera and a folding field camera, utilizing the best of both worlds. This is one of the most versatile cameras ever made, with rigidity and stability second to none, while still retaining the ability to fold down into a tiny package, similar to any other folding field camera. The telescoping rail allows for a massive 450mm+ extension, more than any other field camera. This particular camera features the rare Linhof Superscreen, an ultra bright fresnel screen specifically calibrated for this camera. The camera can also take any Linhof viewing accessory, such as the folding hood or reflex viewer (as well as any graflock accessory).Includes:
• Linhof Technikardan 45 camera
• Schneider Symmar-S MC 135mm F5.6 lens
• Schneider Symmar-S MC 210mm F5.6 lens
• Three 4X5 film holders (used, modern, tested light-tight)
Camera Features:
• Front and rear movements include rise/fall, shift, swing, axis tilt and geared fine focus
• Fully dampened movements (for precision adjustments of movements)
• Back can easily be mounted in vertical or horizontal position
• Linhof Supercreen + ultra bright ground glass/fresnel combo
Camera Condition:
• This camera is used, tested and working as it should
• Cosmetically, this camera shows light signs of use
• Newer replacement bellows are tested light-tight
• Spring lock back is tight and works as it should
Schneider Symmar S MC 135mm F5.6:
• 135mm is a slightly wider than normal-angle of view lens on 4X5 cameras (similar to a 40mm lens on 35mm cameras)
• Clean, modern, multi-coated glass
• No fungus, haze, scratches or other major issues to note
• Press shutter (self-cocking) is in good working condition and fires nicely on all speeds
• No caps included
