Inspiration from the past
The 1895 catalog from the Rochester Optical Co., with various camera models offered in sizes up to 20x24 !
(I doubt that many were made, but at lest they were alvailable !) For reference, $1 from 1895 corresponds
to about 20 present-day dollars.

One of the references in modern ULF. They are making a 20x24 camera with a Polaroid back and with this system, they
have increased the number of Polaroid 20x24 Studios to 14. |

The Star Camera Company
Stepping back more than a century, this company sells cameras and supplies for old photographic processes, namely daguerrotype and wet plate equipement.
They make 16x20 and 18x22 ULF cameras that are beautifully finished. No movements, of course, but who needs those ? |
