Why choose 5x7?
The perfect middle ground between 4x5 and 8x10. Far more negative, with barely more camera to carry.
Offering a larger negative and even more clarity than 4x5, without sacrificing portability. Like all of our cameras it's super lightweight (at 1.7kg) and folds down to easily fit in your camera bag.
The 5x7 has all the incredible features of our more popular 4x5 cameras but allows you even more creative freedom, perfect for contact prints, paper negatives and alternative processes like wet plate.
Quick to set up, tough enough for the field, and dependable in any conditions, the Intrepid 5x7 Black Edition is built to keep shooting.
