Linhof Master GTL 4x5 Camera Beautiful Fully Serviced w/ Pan/Tilt leveling Head New Bellows Wide Angle Bellows
Linhof Master GTL 4x5 heavy duty precision studio monorail camera in excellent condition, fully CLA rebuilt and ready to use. These cameras represent the top of the line Linhof monorail camera ever made. This example is perhaps among the nicest cosmetic condition ones left in the world. Includes the most useful pan/tilt leveling head and Kardan to Technika lens board adapter. This was the final version made, it is considered the pinnacle of GTL camera evolution.
The GTL cameras are becoming difficult to find in any condition, especially hard to locate in excellent condition like this. Purchased new in Japan by a hobbiest photographer, this camera had one owner since new. Most GTL cameras are badly in need of a restoration service or have been heavily used in commercial studios, this one is beautiful and ready to use. I’ve had a lot of GTL cameras come through the shop, this is the best condition one I’ve ever seen, only the lightest wear is present.
This example has undergone an extensive CLA rebuild and operates perfectly again. All movements are smooth and precise, all locks are tight and camera functions properly. Brand new Linhof 4x5 Ground Glass installed, I will install a new fresnel upon request. Super smooth and precise focus movement. Brand new Linhof bellows, also included are excellent Linhof wide angle bellows (the best version with frame wire built in to keep the shape).
The best of the best in ultra precision 4x5 view cameras. An incredible amount of movements and a pleasure to use in the studio.
Includes 12 month full warranty. Shipping cost determined by location, worldwide shipping welcomed at the exact cost, email with interest.
"The most sophisticated and technically perfect monorail system in the Linhof line, a superbly engineered heavy duty studio camera with all the proven advantages of the Kardan design principle and the added convenience of yaw-free indirect displacements. The modular Kardan Master GTL combines maximum stability with solid brass micro drives offering the greatest amount of corrective control of any camera system when produced. It utilizes direct displacements to their greatest extent and allows yaw-free indirect displacements with inclined monorail, especially advantageous for close-up table top work, so that each user has total freedom of choice and can select the specific displacement technique, including the optional use of freed adjustable asymmetrical (floating axis) swings and tilts on the rear standard."
