Which 4x5 inch large format camera is best for professional studio use with a digital scanning back? As our experience in large format digital photography increases we are always looking for ways to improve our equipment. At last we have access to a 4x5 camera from Sinar and can now review our initial impression of the Rolls Royce of professional studio cameras. Since most of our photography is in distant locations we previously used a Linhof Technikardan and Wisner. Both of these 4x5 cameras fold up nicely. But for studio photography with a heavy scanning back the Linhof was too weak to handle the weight. All the wooden cameras are attractive looking but are made with movements based on cameras of the 19th century. 1) either no zero decent or a sloppily defined zero point There is no dial, no register, not much to tell you when you are at the zero point for that movement. 3) the front of these portable cameras is the worst part of their century-old design.
