@SG - thanks. I thought they do not produce walnut 45N-2s...

What's that model number again? LOL

Oh my god, can you say Chamonix 045N-2 one more time?

@healthpimp I have several Chamonix's, and they're all more than a year old. How much is your bet worth?
I respect my gear, but it's just gear. I handle my negatives delicately, but the Chamonix is merely a tool, as is any camera. Do you baby and polish your wrenches and hammer?

@healthpimp have you ever used one of these cameras? i have one and although i'm not as rough with it as he is, i fail to see what he is doing that could make the camera break with in a year. it's a VERY well made. On top of that, this isn't a camera that i bought with the intentions of passing down to my kids (i'm sure michael feels the same way), maybe a Linhof or an Ebony but not this one.

WOW, I bet it wont last a year, Jesus, I am all about using a camera it is a tool, however respect your gear and it will hold value as well as out last you. If you take care if your things, you may be able to hand it down to your son and it wont be all beat to piss. However yours may function as a hammer too. Worlds lightest Hammer that makes a picture! I feel sorry for who ever buys your Mint camera on ebay! LOL

@sinoperture You'd want a 120mm, 90mm, or even wider to emulate pano. Simply crop away the extra frame to achieve your results. The Chamonix ground glass is conveniently etched to show framing for 6x4.5cm; 6x6cm; 6x7cm; 6x9cm; and 6x12cm.
i hope this guy is more delicate with his girlfriend

I am married, but I'm not that delicate with my wife either :) Just remember: it's a TOOL and not a delicate museum piece. The Chamonix is very well built and can handle it just fine.
