I agree with you about the quality of the Wisner...it's wonderful. I own
and use both an 8x10 and 5x7 Technical Field and love them.
Respectfully, what I can't agree with is the comment about supply or prices
of used ones. I've checked eBay religiously at least once a week for the
past two years (looking for accessories). I haven't seen a dozen go through
in that time...and the prices are very high. I also always check all the
ads in View Camera and find the same situation. What am I missing?
