Will a 4×5 camera travel?
Well now you can without lugging around a massive view camera. Wanderlust’s Travelwide 4×5 camera is small enough to go wherever you go. It’s no surprise that at this price, the camera comes only with the pinhole lens. Wanderlust recommends a Schneider Angulon 90mm F6.

What size should I crop my photos to print?
In order to take the image your camera produced at a 3:2 aspect ratio and print it in a size that has a different aspect ratio you’ll need to crop part of the photo off. For an example, going from a 3:2 ratio (4×6) to an 8×10 size (which is a 5:4 ratio), you’ll need to crop off two inches.
