hi all,
i have found something i have never heard of or seen before.
it is a graflex style camera. looks like 5x7 but the 5x7 glaflex film holder i have is just a bit too big to fit on the back. the focal plane shutter seems to work. i have some viewing parts but they are separated from the camera and may not be complete.
now for the good part! it had a Aldis portrait anastigmat f3 lens with a soft focus selector. ever hear of this? i will try and shoot this on my 8x10 but i am afraid it is goingto rip off my front standard! it probably weighs 10+ pounds and is about 5 inches across!
any one got any info on this camera lens combo? any idea whatthe value would be?
thanks
eddie
