A 65mm kit just opened up!
It's like lens kit whack-a-mole!
Ok, I have my Angulon 90/f8 ! Now waiting for the camera to hang at the back ! I'm glad it came with an original mettalic screw-in type lenscap for the back, with the Scneider logo on it. Never seen one like this before.

Whaaaa?? Super Early Bird specials popping up all over!
Congrats, looks like this was a very successful project.
The Viewfinder is the Soul of the Camera
If you don't believe it, look into an 8x10 viewfinder!

Well, as soon as I see the debit from my debit card, I am packing up my 90 Schneider 6.8 (linhof select) in Synchro Compur shutter and shipping it off to SK Grimes for a service. ($100 to $125).
I'm presuming the Kickstarter will draw the money from my account today???
With the film holders on standby, and including the price of the lens, the service and the camera body, This is the least expensive, lightest, most accomodating ergonomically, 4X5 Project I have ever done.
Originally, I bought my first Crown in 1990 (wow,23 years) at a Camera shop located in an old church in Columbus Ohio...... Columbus Camera Group. I think they are still in that old church. The first time I went there the building was filled with tables of used merchandise, and you used to pull boxes out from under the table and rummage through them. I found my Crown in one of those boxes.
I drove up from Cincinnati one day, expecting to spend a couple of hours at the camera shop. I had been a constant follower of the Columbus classifieds in the back of the old rag Shutterbug for some years. I finally realized after moving from Oregon to Cincinnati, that I was about a two hour drive, or less from CCG in Columbus. I got there mid morning, and started looking around. At noon I left and walked down the street for lunch. I went back to CCG and looked some more. I left about 3PM. Lighter by about $225, I took my new (to me) Kowa 6 w lens, and Graflex Crown, and drove home.
This was nearly as much fun, watching the dollars roll up on the screen. Thanks guys.
