Hi Paul,

The two cameras I considered were the TK 45S and The Canham DLC.  The 45S is 
a wonderful camera, but IMHO a bit too difficult to use under extreme 
conditions.

Workmanship is exactly what one would expect from Linhof and all movemts are 
very positive with very accuate lock downs.  For me, packing this camera, 
erecting it and breaking it down for every shot in the field is nothing 
short of monumental - just my opinion!

Regards, Pete
