Services for the Large Format Photographer
 

A completed Paqpro is for photographer Joe Blaze in Chicago. The modified Paqpro (pictured right) is mounted with a 35mm Rodenstock. Mr Blaze requested that his system utilized a Linhof mounting plate, thus allowing him to use previously purchased accessories.

This required the fabrication of an adapter plate (see below, tinted red).

The additon of the Linhof mount pushed the focal plane back, forcing the lens to be further recessed. Consequently, the focus mount was inaccessable. To remedy this situation, a focus mount extention was fabricated (see (3) in picture below right) which gave enough clearance for the focus mount to be opperated. Also featured in this picture is the mounting flange (1) and the Barrel adapter (2).

Also, all new Paqpro cameras are be fitted with updated tripod mounts and shoe mounts. One such new mount can be see on the top of the Paqpro pictured right.

Another completed Paqpro system for photographer, Peter Latner. The camera is mounted with a 75mm Rodenstock lens. This design features a removable Linhof handle and dual shoe mounts.

Mr. Latner shoots on both a 6x7 and 6x9 Horseman rollback and did not want to constantly change his viewfinder depending on the back he was currently using. The solution was tandom shoe mounts.

Mr. Latner also provided us with aLinhof erganomic handle. The current handle mounting utilises the Linhof locking mechanism, allowing the handle to be removed is so desired.

Feel free to contact us with any questions or comments. We are always interested in modifying/improving/customizing the Paqpro camera system for our clients.
