For sale: 4x5 Burke and James View Camera

Wed 31-Jul-02 06:10 PM
Ok, for those of you wanting to improve your photography or produce awesome negatives - I have an extra 4x5 view camera (body only) for sale at an affordable price. It's a Burke and James, 4x5, Orbit model. I love the camera, but I have two 4x5's and don't need two. I can send a picture to you.
