I've come across an original 5 page instruction manual for the Wista and the Zone VI version of the Wista. PM me with a non-forum email address if you'd like a scanned copy. I'd send it to Seth but I don't think he is adding anything to his cameraeccentric website.

Kevin, can you mention which version of the Wista (4x5 I assume) your manual applies to? And whether or not it's the version of the manual that was so poorly translated?
Thanks
Tom

It was written by Mr. Picker and he was a decent writer.

Thanks Kevin. I think your manual would not cover the Wista 45SP that I have.
cheers

Why not just link to it here in the forum? I'm sure there are no copyright issues anymore.
