Heavy and very stable camera. Rock solid once all swings, shifts and tilts are properly lock. We worked with the PC, but the basic Legend is prefferable because it is a couple pounds lighter.

The massive railing where the car slides to rise and fall makes the front end tight when ones wants to position compendium shades and at very great close-ups. That is it's only shotcoming.

My absolute favorite camera, although extreme close-up photography is limited due to the weakness mentioned above, but in eight years I worked with it, it only affected us once. The rotating back rules. The depth of filed calculator workes flawlessly. The adjustments remainded acceptably tight throughout. The best buy for the price.
