Don,

For the poor-mans's solution, look at the Super Graphic.  It has more 
movements than the Crown or Speed Graphics, but doesn't have the rear 
cloth shutter.  Lacking the shutter is a good thing!  Lighter and they 
rarely work correctly anyway!  I'm in Queensland right now with mine... I 
lugged a Sinar F around a few years ago and am enjoying the portability of 
the Super.

Now if I can just find some interesting subject material...
