Super Speed Graphic Camera Operations

[MRH_Photography]

I am at a loss--how do you open the camera/ the camera bed to the super speed graphic?

[tim atherton]

stand it on it's thinner bottom edge. grip it on ether side close to the top and use your thumbs to turn the two half prodtruding focusing knobs (can't remember which way).

This slides the focus rails back slightly and allows the bed to be flipped out (the rails are used as the locking mechanism)

there's a manual online (it's pretty basic) I'll find the link

Thanks I will go home and try it tonight. Hopefully everything works

Don't despair, I had the same problem. There is one little button, and it's hidden under the leather! I'm serious, it's just a little bump under the leather. Just push it and the bed should open right up. I don't have my camera in front of me, so I don't remember exactly where it is, either on the top or the side.

not on the Super Speed - which is what's confusing...
