I can not think of a Large Format Camera that is a s simple to set up..... Within a few minutes of putting it on the tripos, you are set up & ready to go !

With NO BELLOWS to worry about, the front & rear standard are extremely rigid,
and with 40mm of Rising / Drop front, it will cope with almost anything you can throw at it .

The S4 lacks the extensive movements of my Sinar P2, but for portability when out on site, it can not be bettered.

Log on to the Silvestri Site at - silvestricameras.com
click on the "Architecture" panel & you can view four of mi images taken with the
Silvestri Camera.

Try one........You will not regret it !

I have used the Silversri for about 5 years, it is an amazing 5x4 camera - It is of excellent construction & the 2 lenses I have used ( XL 47 & 72mm Schneider) are as sharp as a razor.
