My 4x5 Crown Graphic doesn't have a rotating back, but it has
tripod mounts for either orientation. It is still a rugged
and reliable camera, though limited in movements. A great
(and relatively inexpensive) way to break into large format.
I would recommend a Crown over a Speed Graphic simply because
they usually cost less, and if you get a lens in a shutter you
may never have need for the Speed's focal plane shutter.
