Q: 10. Does this camera have a hot shoe and if so does it work with pocket wizards? I looked in the specs and didn't see anything, and the image provided doesn't show the top of the camera. Thanks

A: No, the Toyo-View 4x5 45GII View Camera does not have a hot shoe. The camera has a accessory cold shoe on the top of the front standard, but the sync terminal for large format cameras are built into the lens. As such, you may place the PocketWizard in the cold shoe, but you would need a 1/8 (3.5 mm) miniphone to PC male sync cable to connect the PocketWizard to the PC sync terminal on your lens.
