X camera 4×5″ – the new super light camera by StenopeiKa

Ciao ragazzi!

After some weeks i’m ready to show you the new X camera 4×5″ by StenopeiKa, your new super light professional camera!

Yes!!! because with its 1.5 kg is one of the lightest large format cameras on the market, plus with its very small size 23x20x7.5 cm make it one of the most easily transportable, in fact I use it in a bag for Ipad!!!

So, I’m very excited about this presentation, I worked a lot on this camera, I had it tested before Silvano Magnone (here the link to the video of the trial), and to Giulio Speranza, and only after passing these two tests I decided to present it!

Your definitively affordable camera – Hyper camera 4×5 advanced full optional

Ciao ragazzi!

Today i’ll show you your definitively affordable camera: Hyper camera 4×5 advanced full optional.

Why definitive?

Because for you who looking for:

  1. a lightweight camera (1,4 kg)
  2. compact (22x22x6.5 cm when closed)
  3. easy to transport (enter a bag for ipad),
  4. with the possibility to use not only the sheet films but also roll films (with graflock back)
  5. easy to use (you could see in the previous videos how easy it is to open and the controls are placed in very comfortable positions)
  6. a good price

Hyper camera 4×5 advanced full optional is the perfect choice.

Today you can have everything you want with only € 497

Today I’ll show you the accessory that differentiates the advanced model (presented last week) from the Advanced full optional model that I present today: the graflock roll film holder back.

With this back you can also use the roll film holders back (size 120), and turn a affordable camera into a truly complete camera that meets the expectations of the most demanding photographers.

Hyper camera 4×5 – advanced

Ciao Ragazzi

Also today other great news!

I’ve just finished the advanced version of Hyper camera 4×5 the first affordable 4×5 camera by StenopeiKa.

Why this version? Because after many request I decided to implement some features of high-level cameras on the basic to meet even the most demanding users. So for that reasons on the Hyper camera 4×5 advanced you’ll find a professional focus ground glass with printed grid (on basic version you’ll find a satin glass without grid) and the comfortable fine focus system under the focus ground glass like every StenopeiKa’s cameras.

I made this decision because for me, on a professional camera, it is essential to be able to focus with one hand and with the other to use at the same time the loupe 8 or 10x viewer on the screen.

Other difference with the basic version is the color, on the basic the color is only natural wood, on the advanced only black.

These additions raise the price to reasonable € 447, but you have a camera that has nothing to envy to some on the market that cost almost double.

In the video you could see also other accessory, the advanced back, i’m preparing a video specific for this accessory, practically, I immediately anticipate what it is, it is the usual back that I mount on the StenopeiKa 45se2 folding camera professional that allows you to also use graflock holders, I’ll be more precise next week.

Ciao a tutti!

P.S. last Sunday, while I was recording the video on the Hyper camera 4×5 basic, I was approached by a gentleman who says he knows me and takes me a picture with a film, with a Nikon … oh well, I forgive him 🙂 Thanks Mirko.

Hyper camera 4×5 – the new affordable folding camera 297€ (!!!)

Ciao Ragazzi

You read correctly, today I show you the new Hyper Camera 4×5″, the new affordable 4×5 folding camera the first of StenopeiKa brand.

In the video you could see the design of new camera with the base board in the shape of the letter H from which the name “Hyper” is inspired.

This camera is thinking for the beginner large format photographer who want to try but don’t want to spend a lot, for t

his reason I designed this camera from “white paper” and thinking with the mind of the people approaching the large format for the first time, so I focused everything on lightness, transportability and cost.

The result is the camera into the video, price 297€ (+ vat), weight 1.3 kg, 22 x 22 x 6.5 cm when the camera is close, It is sufficient to transport abag of Eastpack (where I put my ipad), incredible.

In addition to this there are other details that make it particularly appreciable, such as the 4 ball levels, the possibility to change the classic bellows with a bag bellows through the magnetic system for years on StenopeiKa’s cameras.

Pre-order is already available:

How to assembly 4×5 camera – Stenopeika 45se2 folding camera

Ciao Ragazzi

Today other video “tutorial” about the assembly of 4×5 camera.

For this video I chose my favorite camera, the StenopeiKa 45se2 folding camera, I like it because it is a complete and complex camera and in a certain way reminds me when I started shooting with the Sinar f2, attention I did not say that it is a Sinar f2, I was inspired especially for the separate and independent movements (both front and back standard), mechanical zero positions and rigidity.

Obviously then I modeled the project to incorporate these features, suitable for a very professional audience, in a folding.

For all these reasons I decided to shoot the video of the assembly with this camera, I hope you enjoy it.

This camera configuration is dedicated to my friend Isabel.
