Certo Certosport

9x12 Plate Camera from around 1929. Anastigmat Trioplan 13,5 cm, 1:4,5

 

Even if it is called "sport" sport is not really what I would use it for. It is as sporty as a sports bar.

It works well for non moving stuff. You can tilt and shift. And it has a level, like the Canon 7d. To get 9 shots per second you will need a lot of practice! But the "sensor" is about 50 times bigger than a crop sensor.

Developing the big negs can be difficult without a special tank for it. Fingers in the chemicals...argh. Anyone who knows better how to get the negative from one bath to the other in total darkness?
