Love the film holders' slots. The design of the camera and stand are very beautiful and elegant.

Hi Folks

Sorry I have not been active in the post I made. I bet no longer than an hour after I posted we got SLAMMED w/ 20" of snow. Well actually it had been snowing when I made the post. I just lost all power an hour after. so sorry.

Thanks to the kind reactions but other than posting photos I have nothing to do w/ the beauty.

Incredible. I'd love to hear the story of how you found it.

Hey Barry. the story goes I almost passed on the camera. the price was right. I just could not wrap mind around the year style & hell I have quit a few of these already & you can have to many but still want them all(at least me).

The story was my friend wanted the lens. Seller did not want to split the two up. I told my friend if the price was a set amount I'd help him get the lens. I was Eddies party when the deal was going down & my friend wanted an answer. I did not get to see the photos he had emailed that Sat. I had to flip a coin. No shit. That's how I wound up w/ the Black beauty. I really almost past. When I returned home & took a look at the photos & I was pleased.

Never seen one, but I always wanted one! You're a fortunate man, Louis!

Hi Mark. Thanks & yes I guess I am. I really did post post because I figured that few are around & wanted to share.

Man Thanks for the info. It looks like the print I received w/ the camera was from the catalog. I was glad it was w/ it or I might have thought it was a one off.

Mark ,if I sell the camera one day . I'll give you 1st shoot. You would have to make a trip out of it cause I would never ship it.
