I'll second that. I have a DLC45 (the metal one) and have used it a lot.
It
is a wonderful camera. I'm now lusting after the 5x7 version, though I'm
also considering the somewhat heavier wooden version with the somewhat
longer bellows draw (28", I think it is, as opposed to 24" in the metal
5x7,
from memory).

My full 4x5 outfit is lighter than my full Nikon 35mm outfit, and I have
some of the Nikkor telephotos for the 4x5. A really full selection of
lenses.
