Finally - the perfect justification for your drum scanner 🤭
Wishing you many years of creative challenges ahead.
LOL! Thank you my friend!😎
@@tonysantophotography seriously tho, it looks beautifully engineered.
I’m way too cognitively challenged and clumsy to be allowed anywhere near one; I was strongly considering a Toyo vx125 because not only are all movements geared, I think they’re all measured as well so I could record what I have done with each shot and be able to learn by comparison.
Given your years of experience that would probably be a hindrance - especially hiking with the extra weight… the Chamonix is designed for artists not for surveyors 😅
I’m losing my resentment that I dropped the photographic ball 30mumble years ago, enjoying the excellent content you and a number of other folk produce, and enjoying getting back into medium format and getting satisfaction with the small progress I’m making.
Thanks for the inspiration and enthusiasm
Absolutely stunning camera,high quality!!
Thanks Nat! I’m really happy with it. 😎
Most be an Roy's Rolls vintage camera, prices are stunning on filmholders: . A new ultra light 810 camera model is in its design and testing stage for these holders to be used without the holder frame. Each holder has a weight of 285g and a thickness of 4.8mm with its thickest part of 6.2mm. The holder frame has a weight of 161g and will attach the holder to itself via magnet. This set of five holders and its frame has its carbon fiber carry bag. The carry bag has a weight of 293g. The price of our Summit 810 set is $3,900 ...
Anyways, great info video on the 810 Chamonix.... ;)
Thanks for sharing with all of us. I appreciate your support! 😎
nice review, I shoot 4x5", and on a sinar F2 monorail, one benefit of my kit, that Chamonix could add to this one, is to have a way of adding a compendium lens shade, on my sinar it is achieved by a hex rod clamped in a socket on the bottom corner of the front standard, also adding filter holders, etc. are done with this, I noticed the chamonix only has a stud atop the standard (for the bellows clip); which could easily be modified, by a threaded sleeve on the stud, allowing a bellows hood to be attached, like those on cambo SC 's, Linhof Cardan, and others.
also with the bellows sag issue, one solution could be to use the standard in the rearmost hole, and ,with an intermediate standard, and aux bellows adding the lens on the extension board, with little sag, as the intermediate std would support it from the center. ( one modular solution that chamonix could build into the design of these cameras, NO matter the size!, even adding to the H1 and F2/N2 model lines, increasing their usability, and adding an accessory line-up to their business model).
Thanks Andy. Ia appreciate you taking the time to share some insights with us.😃
Happy hiking. Ok .. Bit those things have aerodynamics of a box kite. The slightest breeze causes camera shake.
Fortunately, that’s not been my experience with the camera. It’s been rock solid for me. I appreciate you taking the time to watch. Cheers! 😎
Great video! I love mine as well. Great tip on using the bail lever when removing the film back. Imo, if you are using linhof lensboards the Chamonix linhof adaptor is the one to get. It has the wooden outline where it makes contact with the focusing board when folded. That way it reduces the amount of scratches to the focusing board that may happen. I wish it included a fresnel screen and there is no aftermarket way of adding one. I talked to Hugo and they do support one but you will need to buy some special hardware and get the fresnel from them. Which they are either in short supply or out of. It's specially sized just for that camera. I just carry a generic fresnel screen with me and manually hold it up to the ground glass to check composition.
Thanks Jay! Those are great tips! Thanks for sharing. We need to have another Chamonix party!😂
great camera. i have the same and just returned from Yosemite and playing videos as I develop. I moved to this from a toyo 810M which is great but at leat 3x the weight which is a no-go for long hikes. full loadout is
Sounds like a great trip to Yosemite! I’d love to go there soon. Thanks for watching and sharing with us!
Beautiful camera! Wish I have the budget😂
