Charlie Graf comments: This is not a Seneca Model 9. Nor is it a true view camera (in spite of its name). It does not have front tilt, so it is really just a field camera.
Graflex Pacemaker Speed Graphic from somewhere between 1947 and 1970. A little rough but fully functional - includes a Graflok back, a working Heiland bulb flash and electric solenoid synchronizer. Fun to use but I can't imagine lugging this around for my day job.
From Graflex.org:
The Speed Graphic was manufactured by Graflex, in Rochester, New York and was the dominant portable professional camera from the 1930's through the end of the 1950's. In many ways, the Speed Graphic was America's first and last great camera.
The Speed Graphic camera has two shutters - focal plane and in-lens; three viewfinders - optical, wire frame and ground glass; interchangeable lenses; a rise and fall front; lateral shifts; a coupled rangefinder; and a double extension bellows adaptable to lenses from 90mm to over 300mm.
Afflicted by a ``Rube Goldberg'' variety of features, the Speed Graphic looks complicated but is one of the simplest and most flexible cameras made. Nothing in the Graphic is automated; if you don't pay attention you can double expose, shoot blanks, fog previous exposures or shoot out of focus images. However, once you get used to it, it is amazingly easy to use.
My pocket4x5inch pinhole camera, almost finished, just needs a shutter. For the moment as can be seen I'm using a low fi paper shutter...
-------------------------------------------------
I have started a group for large format pinhole only as to separate it from the rest of the pinhole images. Because its another world and focal length in large image photography.
Images must be made starting from 4x5inch and upwards, bigger the better and using plan film, polaroid or photographic paper to create the images. Using homemade or modified large format cameras.
Everyone that is into large format pinholes is welcome :
Paper negative shot taken to test out a 'new' camera. The very crude framing is due to trying to cut the enlarging paper to size in the dark with a pair of scissors. Will need to make a template for next time.

So just for fun I was messing around and threw together this little montage to visually compare the imaging size of my trusty 7D with my new-to-me-kind-of-rickety-old Wista (respective camera sizes are not correct and for illustration only haha).
Uhh ...

My new 8 X 10 large format, wide-angle, pinhole camera. I'm finishing it up this week. I plan to test it out with some paper later on this week. I hope it shoots as good as it looks. If you look closely, you can see the aperture under the S for Stout, that would be F361. Yes, if you recognize the metal, it came from a Murphy's beer can. Thank you professor Woods!

My second Aero Ektar (picked up for little money, see pictures to the right). On an Anniversary speed graphic.
The anniversary is a wartime model (no Chrome) and the one I use the most.
The lens is made in 1942 and the lettering is flat, which I find quite beautiful.
Got my Calumet C400 series monorail 4x5 camera today. very light compared to my old burke and james and way easier to use. about 8# compared to 15#. Need some ground glass and it's on baby!! ;)
