Linhof Technikardan 45s
Complete 4x5 View Camera

|
The Technikardan perfectly combines the compactness
of the classic Linhof Technika drop-bed design and
the optical bench versatility of the Kardan series.
It is a compact and mobile camera system designed
for the demanding pro who needs to travel light but
also wants to exploit all the possibilities of a
fully adjustable view camera system. The
disengageable click-stops assure positive zero
settings for faster operation. The patented concept
of the rotating standards allows to fold the camera
to extremely compact dimensions. There are two
formats available: 6x9 and 4x5/9x12. The
Technikardan 45 offered full format flexibility from
the standard Rollfilm sizes up to 4x5 in. cut-film,
including the remarkable 6x12 wide-field images and
all the appropriate Polaroid film formats. By
changing from normal to wide-angle bellows the
Technikardan permits adjustments with extreme
wide-angle lenses to 35 mm. Fully compatible within
the Linhof system.
