Cambo Passportrait 45

The mat screen can be lifted to allow inserting of a standard Polaroid film holder for 4x5 professional film. The photographer could expose all four lenses together or every one separately. The individual fields on the back measure each 55 x59 mm. A flash sync terminal and a socket for a cable release were included.
