For the record, I use an iMac 21.5" and never had an issue. Of all the Mac products, they seen to be the most stable. MBP's are buggy little laptops sometimes, and the 27" iMac is said to be prone to...

Once you go Mac, you never go back! Trust me!!

If you call Adobe and tell them that you have a product license key, and you switched operating programs, they will help you download the right one....

I've contacted two repair centers about a total refurb of the camera. Estimates range from $150 to $330 with Steves Camera in CA being the most expensive. I wanted to do this now, because I plan on...

So this is what it looks like today... Ugly, but working!

If this was taken recently... how'd you get so many vintage cars in the photo?? LOL

Thanks John!! I tried this today and it seemed to do the trick. I bought SOBO brand glue because it was listed as a PVA brand, and it dries flexible. I mixed it with some black India Ink in a small...

I'll be at Hobby Lobby bright and early!! Thanks!!

This sounds interesting... And easier! Can you explain it to me a little more?

The focal plane shutter on both of them are "sticky". They work, but sometimes they get stuck or drag. The material is good though. I used the flashlight and the one on the Anni body is good. No...

I used a flashlight in the bellows last night and in the creases and folds, where the outer layer has peeled away from age, its nearly like looking at light through a cheesecloth.

40 views and not a single reply. Is it that stupid of a question?

Maybe I should have asked, "what would you do in this situation?" instead.

I have this anniversary model of course,

And this unknown parts body came with the deal.

The parts body does not have a back or a lens board and its in a little rougher shape....

I've returned home and I was just checking out the bellows. There aren't any holes per say, but the folds and creases are very thin. If I shine a flashlight into the bellows it's like shining a light...

Got it!

I know that the crank turns, and that the lever trips it, but I dont know what the shutter looks like. I *just* figured out that it was in fact a focal plane shutter about an hour ago.... I had no...

That's what I thought, but wasn't sure. Thanks!

Yes, I've been reading bits and pieces of it over the last few days. Thanks!





So its an electrical bit, not a mechanical part then?

I don't plan on shooting LF with a flash at this time,...

Since I've been researching and reading and from the responses that I've recieved, I've determined that my new camera is an Annivesary Model, wartime era because there is no chrome parts.

After...

Thanks y'all.

Alan, sounds like my kind of place!

I bet y'all are the kids that are made to sit in the back of the classroom huh? LOL ;)

I just picked up 5 Fidelity Elite holders on ebay for $30.

In the lot of stuff that I purchased there is another Graflex body, but I dont know what kind. It doesn't have a lens board, a back, or a...

Hello all! I joined the forum yesterday. Some of you probably recognize my name from APUG. I wanted to say hi, and introduce myself to those of you who may not be elsewhere on the interwebs.

I'm...

I measured the back last night. It is in fact a 4x5, but all the film holders are 3.25x4.25. I don't know how he used it, or if he has the correct size film holders elsewhere and just grabbed the...

He stated that it was a 4x5, but the film holders are 3.25x4.25. Is he just mistaken, or can a 4x5 actually shoot 3.25x4.25 film holders?

For those of you from Apug, bear with me.

To put it shortly, I recently purchased a photographers collection. It included this Speed Graphic which he said was last used about 4 years ago. He...
