My name is Anthony Maddaloni. I am a professional photographer form Austin Texas. I'm going
to talk about speed graphic camera large format 4x5 camera. First thing is how to open up
your camera. When I got this camera for the first time a long time ago. I had no idea
how to open up this camera. It was a complete mystery to me and then someone said there's
a little button on the side if the camera. Which is right here. Now it's underneath the
camera covering. So they've hidden that very well. You press this button down and the camera
voila, opens up. I think this is such a cool little design. I love, love the way this design
is and to close the camera you have to press the button down and then the camera has hinges
right here. That need to be depressed and then the camera close up. Great camera to
basically put in a backpack or something and hike around with. People actually have done
this and this is why this is called a field 4x5 camera. As opposed to a rail 4x5 camera.
Which would be virtually impossible to go out take landscapes with. So again camera
opens up and comes out and then your ready to go.
