I did a search for Polacolar Insight and came up with several links to download the program. here is one.

It looks to me that it is an old Sinar, possibly a Sinar Norma or similar model.
BTW, Wayne is pretty much correct on the thickness of the main body of the film holder of a 545 being the same as a standard 4X5 holder. The problem is all the stuff attached to the end causing...
"A Polaroid 545 holder is the same thickness as a standard 4x5 holder. they fit anywhere a standard holder fits."
This is not really true. The 545 holder bulges at the end. If the Deardorff...
I have a Polaroid 545i back and I just tried it on my Deardorff reducing back and, YES, it does fit. My back is a genuine Deardorff. It has a recessed area just in front of where the film slides in....
I have a copy of the manual for the ATL2. Contact me via email if you want a copy. It is 40 pages. It might take me a couple of days, but I could make up a couple of copies and send them out.
I had a 65mm lens with a 00 shutter mounted in a Linhof recessed board so I know that it does exist. Just keep looking. I sold mine several years ago. You might check the German ebay sight which...
Mine is a newer all black multi-coated version. It has a 57mm rear cap on it. If the older version measures roughly at 56mm with a cloth tape, my guess is that they are probably the same.
At one time, I would have said the Linhof Bi-Kardan. I have collected quite a complete system and I think that is has to be just about the smoothest and, in my opinion, the prettiest camera ever...
I too had a Shen-Hao for a while. When it first came I thought it looked great. After using it for a while I wasn't too thrilled with it. It was an ok basic camera, but there were definite problems...
Although I'm not new to large format, I was planning on attending this workshop just to get to know some of the local large format shooters and try to add some support. However, I just realized that...
I'm wondering what type of a door you are planning on using. I am also in the process of building a darkroom and am wondering what to use for a door to control the light. Opening it up into another...
I would say Korona. All of the hardware and corner brackets match my Korona 5X7. My camera does not have front movements as extensive as this one, but I have seen other Korona's with these movements.
I would definitely be interested.
I had one for about a year. I only shot about 10-12 images with it. I just didn't get into the 8X10 thing, so I sold it. As far as the camera goes, I don't see anything wrong with it at all. It...
I just got mine out and measured it for you. With both standards down and facing opposite directions where they overlap slightly, which seems to be the most compact way, width is 22 1/2 in., height...
I'm interested, what is the source for the grease?
I'll go for the underdog. 75mm.
I had a 65mm , 90mm, 150mm and 210mm combination. I now carry the 75mm, 125mm and 180mm. And usually a 240, 300 and 450, although the first 3 get the bulk of the use.
I just reread Kerry's post and see that he already has reference to the 46mm size. So much for having an oddity.
just to add a little more confusion to the Fuji 125 lenses, I have a Fuji 125 W lens that is multi-coated and has a front filter diameter of only 46mm. Ser. no 440445. So far, I've not seen another...
I'll be there. Anybody else from Utah? I have room for a passenger.
I couldn't convince myself that the asymmetric movements were worth it. As most of the use is outdoors and carrying it around, I was also concerned about the extra weight of the ebony over mahogany....
I too had a Shen Hao and now have an Ebony SV45ti.
I was actually quite impressed with the Shen Hao. I thought that it was plenty rigid, but heavy, and was really impressed with the quality of the...
