    Hi guys. Trying desperately to buy a Pentax 67II (or any great quality 6x7) and a decent 4x5. I've been on Ebay non stop and haven't been having much look, so I thought I'd see if anyone on here is selling this equipment.

    On that note, I'm also trying to shift a Nikon D70s, if anyone is interested. Comes with extras.

    Thanks for the help!
    Katie.

    If you'd go for a Mamiya, there's a full kit after popping up on Adverts. It's a bit pricy, but it's a great kit.

    Have you looked at the Bulldog 4x5 kits? It's DIY, and you're still buying your lens and shutter seperate, but it's a good start.

    Other than that, the Speed/Crown Graphic comes up often and cheap enough. They've usually taken a few knocks, but it's a start, and they're not too pricey.

    Another alternative if you fancy something really handy and don't mind a bit of DIY is converting a Polaroid Land Camera - The earlier rollfilm models have fantastic lenses that will cover the full frame, it's handbagish sized. If memory serves me correctly, the Pathfinder range is the best to do it with. Check these out...
