In view is a used Wista Field DX 4x5 Field View Camera in better than excellent condition. Manufactured of Rosewood, this piece of mechanical photographic art is an eye-popper! The dark reddish-brown of the Rosewood is enhanced by the beauty of solid brass fittings and controls. This camera has the cosmetics normal use in the glossy finish of the wood and warming patina in the lacquer finish of the brass. The cosmetics and patina are consistent with the aging process of wood and brass and takes nothing from the beauty of this lovely camera. The manually rotating back can be removed and replaced by any Graflex compatible roll film back making for super format flexibility. This wonderful, useful and beautiful piece of photographic gear ships to you with your choice of one Wista lensboard in Copal No.0 or Copal No.1 shutter opening.
