Welcome To The View Camera Zone

I have had to expand my pages on view cameras to better organize the information on my growing hobby with large format photography.

I have left my original 8x10 page intact for the most part. Here you will find the basic story of how the camera came about.

While upgrading to the flatbed design I took a lot of pictures as the new bed was built. Check out the extensive list of pictures on the 8x10 Construction Page

For those that want to build an 8x10 camera I have setup a new page called Build 8x10. On this page we will explore some of the basics one needs to know in order to begin designing and building a 8x10 camera.

I have started to put together a page of links dedicated to view cameras. It contains many links for other D.I.Y. camera makers from around the world. I have also tried to list valuable resources.

Need to make a bellows for your camera? Check out my bellows page for some ideas.
