The CHAMONIX View Camera manufacturer is actually a small workshop of eight experienced craftsmen located in Haining city of Zhejiang Province, China. The founder of the company is himself a Chinese photographer and mountaineer. There is an old Chinese saying: A journey of ten thousand miles starts with the first step. 千里之行,始于足下。In 2003 the CHAMONIX factory was founded.
The mission is to design and build the lightest, most rigid and yet aesthetic cameras for large format landscape photographers. Chamonix can rightly claim to offer cameras designed by photographers for photographers.
In Europe CHAMONIX view cameras are exclusively distributed by probably the most renowned darkroom-specialist in the world. JOBO can look back at almost 100 years of photo tradition and has always stood for quality products with an innovative touch.
