Ebony SW45 5x4 Large Format Camera

The SW45 is an ideal choice for outdoor photography, as it is small and portable, and has a good set of movements for image control. The SW45 has front rise/fall, centre (axis) tilt, front swing and side shift, with rise at the rear. Its design makes using wide angle lenses a doddle, with almost no need to resort to recessed lens panels, unlike conventional folding field camera designs.
