There is quite a bit on the net about Burke and James 5x4 Press generally, but not many specific model references as to numbers, but prices are estimated.
Old US adverts from large stores like Burleigh may give old prices. It is likely that being a pro camera it was made to order or sold with a large choice of shutters and lenses. There are even articles from the company owners etc., and instructions books.
Google is the best research tool, but try various arrangements of words and use the image search, I am sure you know this, but it is amazing how many people are poor on internet searches.

Also, if you want to show the image in the posting, copy the photbucket IMG reference and paste it into the posting, it will then automatically be shown in the posting.

Click on the 'Direct' link, not the 'IMG' link, then paste it into the 'insert image' box. Lovely camera!!  |

Now, I assume we are both referring to Photobucket, but the alternatives offered are the three shown below on my copy of Photobucket Html IMG ING via thumnail  I simply press the IMG panel, (it turns yellow), and the line is auto copied to computer memory, and can be pasted into the Camera Collector post by clicking on the paste in drop down menu (right click), after positioning the cursor in the place you want the picture I can't see the "Direct link" that Phil mentions.I hope we are not at cross purposes here, and not trying two methods........

<a href="http://s672.photobucket.com/user/swallin19/media/cc_zpsxy2qyhmd.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i672.photobucket.com/albums/vv89/swallin19/cc_zpsxy2qyhmd.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo cc_zpsxy2qyhmd.jpg"/></a>
And this is the Html button pasted in....... obviously it does nought, as it is entered as Html, which the post panel cannot use. It is the code for use on an HTML web page.
So only IMG, or IMG thumbnail work.......as far as I know........

The lack of, or presence, of the "direct" line tag is a mystery.
It may be down to how the browser is set to handle cookies set by Photobucket.
I have tried Chrome, Firefox, and Edge(microsoft), and all behave the same, no "direct" line tag.
My own PC is up to date, quad core Dell 64bit running Win10.....should not affect anything.
I have tried all the display options in Photobucket, and all return just the three options........

And the form of Phil's IMG link is different to mine.
My PC is a 5 core Acer Aspire M5910 running Windows 8.1
