In line with my theory that a picture paints a thousand words ...or in other words some dodgy but illustrative pics
Norma Clamp note the insert is slightly different to the later ones.

Service manual for the F
Spare parts list 2009
If you managed to take it apart I presume you don't mind trying to fix it yourself, those links shhould help you identify the part number.
The harder thing is probably making up a suitable release cable is you do not have that with it ?
If you need the ops manual I'll try and get round to doing a scan this weekend.

You could try some of the Medium format folders from the fifties you can find nice ones not very much and the quality can be really good. I recently got a Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta that I am liking a...

If you could tell us the lens and camera combination ?
If you are using a wide angle say like the Nikon 150mm Sw f8 that has a 95mm thread you will want to go to a larger filter size. If you are...
You can also use the film plane metering probes from the Sinar system with non metering backs or other makes of camera if you have the metering cassettes it is less ideal but perfectly useable.
Apparently I'm a bad person
Anyway the four extra images for above that I could not put in one post

Right now having had a poke about the Sinar 125 system will do what you want and I can point you in the direction of where you can get most of the bits you might need but then some will be secondhand...
I have a 360 Symar S but have not used this lens yet as I got it ridiculously cheap in dbm mount and it needed cleaning. I do also have a Sinaron 360mm F6.8 the naming gets a bit odd on these but its...
I would be interested in getting hold of a 1200mm Apo Ronar somewhen and giving it a go while they do not go for peanuts they do not go for insane amounts either untill then I have a Apo Germinar...

What you ideally need are four of Formatholder 4206 leastwise that is how Jobo intended sheet film to be processed in these tanks.
I suspect they are long since unavailable but...
The base rails have a black plastic end that does not rotate you can add extention rails which have a red plastic end that freely rotates at one end to either end of a base rail. Joining extention...
The specail bearers are more robust for use with 10x8, the 10x8 back wieghs signifigantly more than the 5x4 one. Another difference is the detents / markings are set up for 10x8. The front standard...
And there I was thinking a picture painted a thousand words.
The crap shot I posted is of a "p" era Auto shutter on a norma front standard, it is fully functtional with no problems. As Rick stated...

The original poster has a P2.

A P2 is going to be lesss worried.

The Sinar Copal shutter has gone through a couple of versions the early ones are shutter only and do not control the aperature the later auto apature has also developed a bit with time biggest change...
I know you asked about flatbeds but Are you aware of the Howtek 7500 drumscanner ? I forget the exact specs but the large drum is more than capable of 11 x 14 and its 5000dpi over the entire area.
Aside from the "it's worth what you are prepared to pay for it"
I was watching one on ebay a few months ago and couldn't find it but remembered the seller and have just waded through their...
I only have experience of the Apo Ronar out of the lenses mentioned I paid about 300 Euros for a mint CL version on a Sinar board two years ago. If you are using a 10 x 8 P2 in the first place...
In case anyone else is interested I rediscovered where I had found the 14 page pdf which is tittled Sinar Instruction Manual and is a really excellent guide to the cameras controls, covers F1 F2 C2...
Hi
If you pm me your email I can send you a couple of manuals that I've found online before, I'd happily post the links however one site is down and I can't find where on earth the bookmark is...
I don't understand why anyone one with a Sinar would use a darkcloth ....definately go buy your self the binocular viewer.
Service manual can be found here
I'm sure I've seen that cheaper but can't find a link to any of the usual suspects at the moment.
I was going to suggest look at their price for the Kodiak kit however
I must admit I...
you can use a 47XL on a flat board on a F with the standard wide bellows although wide bellows 2 reportedly make life easier.
Many will say stay away from them but if you truly want a camera that can do everything don't dismiss the idea of a monorail system camera.
If you are inclined towards something vintage you might...
Go grab yourself a copy of the service manual.
Hello Jodie
May we ask which dealer sold you the camera?
Perhaps you would now like to start a thread in the classifieds section? where no offense but at that price I would expect it not to sell for months.
I don't know about in 10X8 but this thread about a Shen Hao 5X4 may be of interest to you.
Hello Andre
Unfortunately using a P2 10X8 back isn't possible on the Sinar Norma as the frame size is different.
The attachment size for the P and Norma is the same but substantially larger for...

65mm F4 Nikon SW
90mm F5.6 SA db mounted

420mm Apo Ronar F9
Thats what tends to get lugged around with the...
Originally Bag bellows 2 was intended for where people wanted to use a 65mm db mounted lens with the Sinar shutter, I'm sure it would make life easier with the shorter focal lengths and I see to...
It is possible to use the standard bag bellows even with a 47mm XL.
I like Mrcad however Peter Walnes has two bag bellows listed at the moment one for £29 and the other for £35.
Hello Jon, did you mean a 240mm Rodenstock apo sironar-s ?
I wouldn't know the value offhand however that lens has an image circle of 372mm according to the comparison chart on the home page.
