Deardorff (L.F.) 8x10" cameras
The Deardorff 8x10" is a large-format wooden field camera built for sheet film of that size. Deardorff cameras of this format have long been used by studio and landscape photographers working with view-camera movements.
At UK auction today, hammer prices for Deardorff 8x10" cameras have landed in the £2,400–£2,500 range across the two recent results on file, with a median around £2,440. Because these are wholesale saleroom results rather than dealer retail, the price a Deardorff 8x10" sells for can shift sharply with bellows condition, completeness of hardware, and whether a lens or film holders are included.
