Silhouette 612

Custom Handheld 6x12/4x5 Camera with 250mm f5.6 lens

The Silhouette 612 was fabricated for Jonathan Brewer of CA. The system utilizes a Schneider Tele Xenar 250mm f5.6 lens. An ergonomic Linhof handle was integrated into the system, as well as the variable viewfinder and range finder. Film mounting plate is a Graflok design and accepts 4x5 sheet film backs as well as the Horseman 6x12 back. The camera body, mounting plates, and helical were all fabricated to order.

 

TwinCokeDomes

The above image was captured by Jonathan Brewer of Redondo Beach, CA, using the Silouette 612.

"This image is called 'TwinCokeDomes', and it is a structure located in San Pedro California in the vast shipping complex. I shot this film originally in Black and White and then 'solarized' it. The camera is a joy to use, and with all the new Panorama cameras coming out, I still like the versatility of this one."

- Jonathan Brewer
