    Linhof 4x5 left hand grip and grip mount

    Hi, I am new to the Forum, so if I am posting this question in the wrong place, please let me know.

    Anyone know a source for this grip, and in particular, the grip mount that attaches to the camera?

    (I plan on mounting to my Pacemaker Speed Graphic/178mm Aero Ektar combo...)

    Many thanks, Joe

    I was going to say Ebay but I'm noticing about all of them listed seem to have the Grip and no mount. I have a 2x3 Crown Graphic that came with both and I do find the Linhof Grip very nice to use, although one of the shoulder bolts needs to be replaced in the grip itself. I have not found a source for those bolts yet..

    Linhof Studio UK (link above) sells the new style... as well as other grip spare parts...

    The camera bracket and grip hardware changed in 1972 from the older rounded edge looking style to the new square edged style... unfortunately they are not compatible so a pre 1972 grip will not fit the new style hardware and vice versa...

    Call Austin Calhoon at LAFLEX in La Jolla CA, he should have these available and if you'd like or prefer it probably would not be a bad idea to send your camera to him so he can install the grip and look your camera over otherwise to reco and repairs and CLA that might be needed. He's excellent on anything Linhof.

    Of course...LAFlex. I've actually talked to Austin in the past and should have thought about giving him a call. Thanks, Joe
