These threads are always fun. And since my biggest 'steal' actually led me to finding this site, I may as well post it.
At a flea market I stopped and looked in an ugly orange bag that stood out...
Looks like the image is reversed too! Viewfinder and rangefinder on the right hand side of the camera?
I FINALLY picked up a copy of Blacula on DVD. I no longer need my old VHS copy.
Anyways, I was just watching it and noticed there's a Super Graphic in it.
Blacula does not like having his...
That's a beautiful story, Randy. Fantastic story.
Mine is still in progress, but I found a photo album at a Goodwill. For some reason, it was still filled (they normally remove all personal items...
Wish I was already up there. I'm trying to move to Sac, but am having a hard time finding a job. The place I'm working now (in Bakersfield) just opened another location in San Francisco, so I might...
These are fantastic! You're amazing at shooting dogs (that sounds weird. I know).
I'd like to go through this whole thread, but 130 pages?
Sorry to everyone who posted in those pages, but damn....
Thanks again to everyone.
It's nice to know there's such a wonderfully helpful and welcoming community dedicated to these wonderfully heavy cameras.
I went to my film guy and bought out what...
Update:
I actually solved my camera rail problem. I have to lift up on the inner rails when extending everything, but it works. I can't complain.
When I have either the time or the money...
Unfortunately, I can't currently do any wet printing. I don't have enough space for a darkroom. But I intend to someday. I develop my own black and white 35mm and 6x7 film, but I either scan it on my...
Hot Diggity Damn!
I managed to get it back in. It's a little awkward and I have to lift the one side of the inner rails when I extend the rails, but I can close the camera and resume normal...
Okay. Now I'm sure my inner rails are bent. Trying to figure out what's up, I stumbled upon what's wrong (kinda)
The left side (when facing the front of the camera) of the inner rails were not in...
Oh. And I'm in Bakersfield. It isn't far from LA, but I don't own a car and can't afford to go back and forth since I'm trying to save for a move to Sacramento.
This.
I'm pretty sure it's not dirty rails. I'm not saying my rails can't do with a cleaning, but it had no trouble moving between them before. I'm pretty sure I had to have closed it when...
Hello, people. This is gonna be long and boring, so I don't expect everyone to sit and read it all...
My name is James. I'm from Pennsylvania and currently living in California. I've been into...
Thank you all for the help.
The locking lever on the front standard is definitely in the center position. That's something I learned right away.
When I got the camera, it was working perfectly...
I downloaded my manual from butkus (I really need to make a donation there).
I've been doing some research on those newfangled internets that the kids like so much.
I don't have my camera in...
I have a problem.
I just got an Anniversary Speed Graphic. It was fine and I may have somehow messed it up.
Right now, the front standard will not go back onto the rear rails. It's basically...
Just wanted to bump this as a reminder. I will be offering these lenses for sale here on the site on the 10th.
I'll have full descriptions of the condition of glass and shutters and plenty of...
I imagine this would be a very helpful list for you. Just scan down to find your lens.

Then comb it down.
Nobody here but us chickens.
Who said I wouldn't do that?
;)
Thanks. And if I may say so, this is a very interesting forum. I was amazed with the speed and quality of responses I got. Everyone seems very honest and helpful.
I don't shoot on Large Format,...
My bad. I'm sorry. I'm not going to lie to you. I didn't read the rules. I'll check them out though.
And I'm glad to know it has nothing to do with my screen name.
I've been thinking of selling here.
I guess I should say I'm willing to take offers. It'll save me a lot of trouble, I suppose.
So if anyone's interested in any of these, send me a PM with an...
Trust me. He is.
Thank you all.
Can I get anyone else's opinion on the videos?
Should I post links to youtube videos of me demonstrating the shutter-lag within the text of the auction, or...
I took a few snapshots. Just to test. These aren't the final shots I intend to use for the lens. I just wanted to know if you guys think these photos are good enough to illustrate the product. I...
Thanks! I'll make sure to remember all of this. I intended to offer international shipping. I don't want to alienate any possible buyers. I've gotten pissed off when I couldn't get things because...
I hope so. I'm having trouble finding completed auctions with some of them though. That's why I'm posting here. I want to know what I can get before I go for it.
I recently acquired 4 Large Format lenses with shutters. They're in good condition and I'm trying to find out what they're worth. Here's a crappy snapshot of them. I can provide better photos if...
