Today I might have made a mistake. I bought a camera that I did not have sufficient time to research. I hope I did alright.
It is a DIY conversion of a 6x9 120/220 roll film back. It was converted into a 6x12 panoramic camera. It has had a Pentax lens shell converted to focus a LF lens. I bought it because it came with a Schneider 47mm f5.6 XL lens mounted on it.
I shot a few photos on paper this afternoon and they look good except for the pretty extreme vignetting.
I paid $1300.
Did I get ripped off?
