Some of the better known names include (in alphabetical order): |

large format camera I use (a Toyo45A) has had its bellows replaced
in 2006 and I can recommend the work carried out by Camera
Bellows in Birmingham (UK).

camera enthusiasts will be delighted to know there is a website
that caters for their needs. Visit the UK

well as a large photographic one. Twice-yearly meetings and a friendly
atmosphere.
