Hello cskinner,
Welcome to the forum.
It's F type, old model.
Not F1, not F2, and not Alpina of course.
I think its F model.

Hi, this is A F1
There are three different Sinar F, the F, the F1 and the F2
Yours is a F1 because it has got the black finish and has longer rods than the F, the F1 is a more modern version of the F.
Besides the well known F and P models and the beloved Norma, there are a few other Sinar View cameras like the A1, a low cost version of the F, the Sinar C which is a crossing between a P and a F, the Sinar X which is a cheaper P2...
The fact is that Sinar elements are in generally compatible within each system so you can sometime spot some mutant Sinar View cameras.
I had myself created a monster out of Sinar parts, took a bit of F2 a bit of F... and it was alive ALIVE !!! I named it Sinar Z should have named it frankensinar ! :D
