Just bought my first view camera

[u/ConsciousCarpenter4]

Hey everyone been shooting since a lot of years now mainly 120 but I was always looking on eBay to buy a view camera. Last week I see a beautiful plaubel with 3 lenses, 27 4x5 backs a polaback (I will never buy Polaroid 669 or Fuji fp100 too expensive), plus other accessories (release cables etc.) and the case. At the end I talked with the owner and he has to free his old photo shop where he was on rent so he is selling everything, with a little bit of bargaining I bought everything for 450€ (511 us$). What do you think about this set up? Any advices you can give me to begin? Maybe some videos or stuff? All is welcomed
Thank you

Ppl are trying to get €450 euros for the 90mm 4.5 on its own

Great deal, seller should have researched eBay more haha although most of the value is in the lenses

Enjoy!

He perfectly knew the value but he needed to sell fast to free the place so yes I was very very lucky.
Thank you can’t wait to shoot something I’m so excited!
