Description
English: A Sanderson quarter-plate camera, circa 1905. It was my great-grandfather's, and now my grandfather is preparing to move house and has passed on his photographic collection to me. I'd really like to be able to get it working: it needs various little bits of trivial mending on the case, I don't yet know what state the bellows are in and the shutter on this lens definitely needs work. Even if I can get it working, the plates are no longer available so I'd be working with sheet film laid over plain glass. I'd also need a proper darkroom to do tray processing. It seems that sheet film of the appropriate size (4¼ x 3¼ inches) is available, if rare. The lens mounted on it is a Cooke Aviar 5¼in. f/4.5 in a dial-set Ilex shutter, and is rather later than the camera – 1920s or later. I also have an Aldis Brothers lens in a pneumatic Bausch & Lomb shutter that was used by my great-grandfather with the camera.
