My first 5x7, thanks to gear from the forum. Taken yesterday (not my house, but close). I cannot scan 5x7 well on the flatbed, so you will see Mr Newton and also a seam from the composite. Nonetheless... this is it - and it's great.

Looks great. Did you mean single coated though. I've never seen a Fuji with no coating at all. My single coated Fuji is my favorite.

ooops, yes Jim, single. Well, that's almost none. ;)
These Fujinons with the inner lettering have a very nice quality to them, I am only beginning to appreciate them. I also have a 250/6.7 which is beautiful.

Mine is my 125 f5.6. I also had a single coated 150 f6.3. Loved 'em both, but the 125 was the keeper. Oh, and a 180 just like yours one time. Gorgeous negs with that.
Re: In Praise of 5x7... Post'em !
I am looking for a 125 Fujinon actually, but they are not too common. The F8 has an IC of 280.
Regarding the 5x7, what amazes me most is that while you'd think that a view camera is a view camera, each of the formats really has a different character in working with them. Very surprised and that's a lot of fun. Bet it gets even more interesting on the ULF side. With 5x7 it is just as portable as 4x5 (in the same bag I had) and yet nice and big on the GG, but not as "intimidating" as a 8x10 would be. Great format.

A trio of mismatched 5x7 shots. All with Canham 5x7, first Efke 100 and 19" Red Dot Artar, second Provia, 150mm SSXL, third on Portra 160NC using a 9 1/2" Verito. The only thing they have in common is the camera and format and my ineptitude.
