I got a second hand Ebony SV45 TE. The camera was made about 15 years ago, but everything is in perfectly good condition. There is only one thing that makes me unconfortable. As you know, there are three focus knobs on this camera. The front and rear knobs work as smooth and tight as my metal Linhof Master 45, but the focus knob in the middle is rattling and a little bit loose. It is not serious, and the gears and rails can work perfectly well.
My friend said to me that I should not expect a wooden camera to be as precise as a Linhof Tecknika Master. I just want to check with your guys to see if my Ebony needs service.
Thanks a lot, friends!
