Description
A Linhof Technika 4x5 metal camera. The front panel folds down and has the option to extend beyond 90 degrees - the lens plate mount slides out on tracks and can be adjusted by two gears, extending the bellows. The camera has a Technika Xenar 1:4,5 / 150 lens mounted. The back of the camera also folds down to show the exposure plate inside the main compartment - on the panel that folds down is some kind of leather hood and a depth of field table printed onto the panel. The main compartment of the camera has a leather handle on the left-hand side, a view-finder and mount for a flash on the right-hand side, another attachment mount and a circular level on the top, and a hole in the bottom where it can be fixed to a tripod - there is a second tripod mount in the front panel.
