Got a selection of Graflex/Heiland flash mount parts which includes a bracket plate what will lock on the flash mount on Graflex 23 and 34 camera. It's pictured in lower left corner next...
I'm back after suffering terrible hospitalized pneumonia and now on full time oxygen.
I had a pleasant surprise this spring with two heavy metal Weston Master II meters, one Cine Exposure Meter,...
I'm home from France, son dropped by to deliver this lens on lensboard. Lensboard is a size C, stamped on rear, so 4X4. Mounting hole is about 43mm for that 6 3/8 in lens. Can I find a 3 9/16th...
Thanx all. Yes, 45 means 4X5. I started calling the different sizes like 23, 34 and 45 rather than 2X3, etc.
I have a 3X4 Anniversary that appears to have the same wood lensboard. Wonder if the...
Acquired this lens/lensboard combo hopefully to fit one of my Graflex 45 models. Lensboard is wood though and sharp cornered so I suspect it is for an Anniversary or earlier model. Being 6 3/8, I...
133958Dean, I use a pair of machinists dividers that do not have the pencil attachment. You can find camera lens spanners on E-Bay but the wide selection I found there all come from China or Hong...
I can't find a bellows leak. Went in a dark room, used bright flashlight in bellows area, no evidence of light leak or pinholes anywhere. Bellows is clean, supple and like new. I'd treated it...
Thanx Dan and all. You were right about harsh, raw sunlight. Especially the last ones of the buggy and car. Literally high noon, standing in the sun, which then turned out to be a good test of the...
Here is the camera, top view of the bellows.118822118823
I just shot a roll of film through a 1950 Kodak 620 camera and find fogged areas on the negatives getting worse as the roll progresses. Admittedly this is MF film but you guys in LF offer great...
What is the serial number of your Speed Graphic. Knowing then it was made could help determine if it should have a Fresnel installed or not. I've found mention of those with Fresnel in Graflex...
Nède, thanx for the link to your great photo using the Ysarex lens. I can see the vignetting and find it a very attractive effect clearly setting the mood of your tree photo. I notice you live in...

Tom, it is Castor et Pollux (opera de Rameau, legende grecque), Asterix et Obelix. And in the strips, they say "Ils sont fous, ces romains," sometimes "Ils sont fous, ces...
Chut, Chut, mes amis. J'ai toujours cru que Asterix as dit" Sont fou, ces Romains!, pas des Francais. I didn't put a cedilla on my "c" so don't hit me for that. That's the French cartoon...
Good morning, back from France for the summer. Question. I have a Rodenstock Ysarex 127mm/4.7 with shutter, very good condition that came in a Polaroid 110A kit that includes the camera, case,...
120 is standard military cadence.
Standard military cadence.
I also have a 23 Minature from same era with the retrofit Graflok back. It has the plug for the focal plane shutter so correct for the model it was mounted on. Perhaps the front wire frame is very...
Hi Dan, no phobia, just don't want to appear to be advertising for them, also, who knows who intercepts our data streams and throws SPAM back at us. I do it for retail store names too.
We after...
I saw a Speed Graphic with Aero Ektar at E-B*y just yesterday. Check 251466484523. Buy it now is $1499.00. but looks ready to shoot, extra features, etc.
I received the camera today. Amazing fast delivery from California and through a Thundersleet storm here Sunday. It is truly a 3.25X4.5 Anniversary Speed Graphic that has been upgraded to a 1951...
I think it's a 60mm. It's in France and don't remember exactly. Actually a bit more practical as can be moved around the screen to look more in the corners. This 90mm might be better for the 5X7,...
Thanx, nice info.
Walking by a lapidary shop in Remoulins, France, I saw this loupe in the window, about 8 Euro ($11). I wondered if it would work with my Graflex 45 and it sure does. Fits exactly when the cover is...
Thanx for comments all. Like Jim, I'm thinking 3X4 as well but hopefully functional so shootable with 120 mm film once I dust it off and check it out. It is the older 23 with knob and no rollers...
I just won a Graflex with 120 roll film adapter and 3 film holders. I was only bidder on guy's relist. He described it as a Baby Graflex with 127mm/4.5 lens. It appeared in the MF section at E***....
What a day, while browsing E-Bongle early today, I found the complete working cable assembly, no apparent kinks in cable spring minus the small screws, but with paddle and return spring, snatched it...
Jim, Have you shot any with this lens you got from me?
I have a 1950's Crown Graphic with working cable, well adjusted. Easy to use hand held rather than having to reach around and snap the shutter on the lens. Camera is heavy so more shake too. Also...
Thanx Len. I am just trying to restore the camera to it's original state. No problem with releasing the shutter on the lens itself actually. And, I do retract the rails fully. I'm looking forward...
Hi Dan, yes it's the "infernal" mechanism that I'm looking for. From what you say, it was probably damaged, then removed. I'd like to find a working cable to replace it. I found a nice one for a...
Wish I could, the pics I downloaded from the E=B** listing, 151211144325, are smaller than postage stamps so not visible. Try searching for the listing number I included. I just now found one with...
I recently got the above mentioned camera that came without the shutter release cable assembly. The release button is mounted on the case though. It has the 127mm, f4.7 Kodak Ektar lens in a Graphic...
Beautiful shot Nate. A. J. Merrill and Woody Crumbo, to name two have painted the heck out of this scene. Your photo should join their accomplishments. I've visited several times and enjoy every...
the seller asked Euro 550 for the camera and case. I had him down to Euro 300 as I walked away. didn't have the cash.
You should have seen the box full of old barrel lenses on the table. Knowing I didn't have a camera for them, I regret now that I didn't browse a bit in the box.
I just googled the lens in the aerial gun camera. At Ebay, a slightly beat up lens by itself, item 111021437974, is BIN $699.00. Another still on the aerial camera back panel with the Aperture...
Thanx JP. I'd thot it may be the head of Joseph from a Church XMAS display where they used life size mannequins like the lady enjoying the sun. I hadn't thot of the repeating circles when I took...
