Bulldog DIY 4x5 camera

If you like flatpack furniture and photography, you may be interested in this DIY large format camera that has just come out. Unfortunately nothing on the web yet, but I learned about it in an ad and review article in B&W Photography magazine. At around £150 not a bad deal (no lens, of course), but some tools and glue etc required to put it together. Sounds like a fun project. Plus, since it is made of wood, you can screw on other things you like to have, like viewfinders or grips. And you can say ‘I built this camera myself’!
