HI ALL I AM A STUDENT AND JUST PURCHACED A CROWN GRAPHIC AND LOVE IT....HOWEVER I WANT TO SHOOT VERTICAL PORTRAITS WITH A TILT SO THE BOTTOM FALLS OUT OF FOCUS. HERE IS MY DELIMA THE CAMERA ONLY TILTS TOP TO BOTTOM IN HORIZONTAL OR LANDSCAPE CONFIGURATION...ANY SUGGESTIONS? ALSO I WANT A ROLL FILM HOLDER AND LONGER LENS ABOUT A 210-270 ANY SUGGESTION ON THE MODEL AND I WANT TO BE SUR EON THE COVERAGE ON THE LENS...

The "classic" portrait cameras had a horizontally swinging back, not a vertical swing. The idea was to seat the subject at a slight angle to the optical axis, so one eye would be a bit closer to the camera than the other. You then swung the back until both eyes came into focus.

You can do this with a "Crown Graphic," of course, by mounting it vertically. As you suggest, swinging the lens does raise the question of coverage.

I think what you're looking for in a lens will be a non-telephoto with fairly large maximum aperture, eight to nine inches in focal length. Such a lens produces an image circle that can cover a 5x7 frame. There have been a great many "Tessar"-formula lenses like this made over the past hundred years.

If you really want horizontal tilts with the camera turned vertically, I agree that another camera is the best way to go.
