    Century No. 7

    Yesterday, I cleaned out my office at UW Fox Valley. That led to my bringing my Agfa/Ansco studio stand home. I put my Kodak Century No. 7 camera on it. I'd like to do some portraits with 8x10 and 5x7 film. I put a beautiful mint 480mm APO Nikkor on it. Rolling the camera around a bit, the lens fell off and bounced on the floor! Well, that's no longer mint...hopefully it's still usable...Now I have to find the flash sync connector for my Sinar shutter....

    Thanks, Randy. The lens seems ok, although the band that holds the metal lens cap got wrecked. The rest of the lens seems ok, but only time will tell.
