Toyo 1040 Focusing Hood 23L
The Toyo 1040 (often classified alongside the 23L designation or Toyo code 1039/1040 series) refers to a specialized medium format focusing hood system engineered primarily for Toyo’s 6×7 and 6×9 (23-series) roll film systems and sliding backs.Unlike the larger 4×5 large format variant, this hood is optimized for the smaller, modular formats often designated as “23” (2×3 inches / 6x9cm)
Key Features & Specifications
Format Optimization: Specifically tailored for the smaller dimensions of Toyo 23 series equipment, providing a precise, shielded view of the ground glass image circle on 6×7 and 6×9 medium format configurations.
Light-Tight Shielding: Utilizes a durable bellows structure to fully isolate the ground glass from harsh overhead and ambient glare, removing the need for a cumbersome dark cloth.
Hinged Accessibility: Features an integrated swing-away hinge mechanism, allowing the photographer to flip the hood completely out of the way for direct loupe focusing on the screen surface.
Compact Integration: Designed to protect the fragile ground glass screen when collapsed flat, acting as a sturdy integrated shield during transit.
The hood is in excellent cosmetic condition, please see photos provided.
