Bender's are a good alternative for field use, they are light and can
be backpacked somewhat easily. For a copy camera I'd recommend a
metal grey calumet, altho cheap ($200-250), they have a great deal of
movements and Calumet still sells lens boards (recessed(sp?) included).
IMO there is no better way to get more for your $$ from a View camera.
