Here's a long shot (not DV related)
#3
I am assured that the baffles are in good shape, but I haven't checked myself yet. The focal length for the 800 works perfectly for both 120 and 4x5, but 4x5 is way too expensive for a hobbyist like me. With 4x5 you can just put the plate in the camera and take a shot (with a changing bag), but the 120 requires adding a spool and a winding spindle. There's a couple guides online to do it successfully.

Ultimately, if I can get a medium-format camera for around $20 and a couple hours… then I think that's worth the effort! The 800 has a fairly high quality lens.
