Have you tried finding an original Sinar? I bought a new old stock Sinar GG on the bay for my F2 in 2020. At €79 +€6 shipping it wasn't cheap. But it likely wasn't cheaper to replace when the camera...
I started LF only two years ago. Still learning, and I'm having a hard time composing with the GG image on its head. But in addition to b/w I'm using colour negative and chromes in 4x5, as I do in...

Recently I went to the forest with the F2. An eight km circuit. It wasn't a big problem. The backpack is about 16.5kg. The...
I hope you did notice that this black edition is a time limited offer. It's not there to stay. Then again, if turned out to be a huge success and of higher quality, then buyers might press them into...
