It's not what I know as a "Kodak Specialist Model 2" despite what the plate says. In my experience the Specialist 2 was a half-plate field camera made in England in the 1950s. This thing is much larger and seems at first glance to be some sort of horizontal copy camera or something – given the double extension and total lack of movements – but exactly what it is I know not.

Which "total lack of movements"?
From what I can see that camera has rise and shift on the lens board, and at least tilt on the rear. It looks like a studio camera to me, not a copy camera.
I still think it's some kind of process camera...
