Forgive my pre-coffee post! I probably should have written "single
_purpose_", since I was referring to building a setup specifically to copy
your artwork, as opposed to a kit that would also be used for portraiture,
location shoots, etc.



As I mentioned before, a 4" x 5" camera greatly exceeds your needs. Since
your printer forces images to 200 dpi, a smaller medium format camera
would be more than adequate, and they are quite cheap these days. I'd
recommend something like a Pentax 67 (6cm x 7cm) which can be purchased
with a lens for under $500, or a Mamiya RB or RZ 67 for the same or a
little more.

Thanks, Neil.

I've started to research those cameras.
