guillaume_zuili4 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hi everybody, Is there any compatibility between Toyo and Cambo lensboard ? Can I put a Toyo lensboard on a Cambo camera ? Does an adaptor exist ? Best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eirik berger Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 No they dont fit. If there is an adapter I dont know. For several years I have used a Cambo SCN camera until i bought a Toyo G 4x5 this spring. I recently purchased a Calumet C-1 8x10, and I hoped my Cambo boards would fith, but no. Both Toyo and Cambo lens boards appear pretty often at ebay, take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_e._cassidy Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Hello Guillaume, As with many camera makers, Toyo has a couple of different board designs. I use a couple of "Adapters" on my Cambo SC system. I have one that takes 4"X4" square which is very universal, and another that uses the Linhof/Toyo/Wista style field camera boards. I have also seen another adapter for Cambo that takes a Graflex/Horseman designed style press camera lensboard. If you go to the Cambo website you can download a .pdf file that displays the entire system array of the Cambo line of view cameras. The list price for these adapter Cambo lensboards is a bit steep so I recommend searching the used market or auction sites. Hope this helps, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
