Excellent video, the precision and care that goes into making these LF cameras is amazing. Many thanks to Charlie, Max and all the employees of Intrepid.
What a great company and a great bit of news that this wonderful part of photographic history is being cared-for so well. There is definitely a resurgence in film-photography in the U.S. and Intrepid seems poised to take advantage. I am curious, however. Is this camera design patented, or are bellows cameras all basically public domain at this point? If so, protect your company by building a design innovation into your cameras that sets them apart. If these cameras really catch on, you will be one step ahead. :-)
I do not know the quality of those Intrepid cameras, I have only used Linhof and Sinar Cameras, for me precision when adjusting the Camera settings is very important, also long term use throgh many years, the Camera should still be in very good condition with as little as possible wear and tear !
Those who own Intrepid cameras love them, but they cost probably about a tenth of what Sinar and Linhof cameras did and its fair to say they aren't designed for daily professional use, like Sinars.

‘On some of my best photography trips I ended up taking no photos’. That’s just a trip,
The point is well understood. Many hunters go on hunting trips only to come back empty-handed.

The difference is Intrepid is basically an amateur's camera(s). non daily use..and the cost alone should tell you its not equal to a Linhof or Sinar🙄🙄
