This is one of the most amazing camera building projects I've seen.

The Vertical Banquet Camera Project

My wife Susan has been experimenting with both 4x10 and 8x20 Banquet Cameras. She has done some really nice work using these cameras and was wanting to expand the creative possibilities by shooting the cameras in the vertical orientation. She first explored this elongated vertical format by rotating her 4x10 field camera on its tripod head. Not exactly easy to operate the camera in this position, but it did prove to be an interesting format that she wanted to further explore.
