An 8x10 or 5x7 view camera using glass-plate negatives. This shot used an 8x10 glass plate - basically a windowpane coated with emulsion. At 80 square inches it has 80 times the area of a 35mm film frame.

Wonder what kind of camera this was. The photo is so sharp.

Did anyone notice the fingerprint on the right side of the photograph?
