4x5 field camera considerations

["Shade of the Cottonwood, L.L.C." <cottonwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We are considering the purchase of a 4x5 field camera, and while it will
mainly be used for transparency film, we would definitely like a camera
capable of handling b/w infrared. Does anyone know of any materials used
in the construction of 4x5 cameras that make one better than another?
For example, is a wood body more resistant to IR leaks than plastic or
metal, and are leather bellows sound, or is another material more
suitable? I would appreciate any insight those experienced in 4x5 can
provide.
