New to me Plaubel Peco Profia by Nokton48, on Flickr

This arrived here from Germany within the last couple of weeks. The lens is a Schneider 270mm Tele Arton and the 4x5/9x12 sliding roll back makes this fast to use. I am going to use 4x5 Graphmatics in it for now.

This is all original Plaubel Peco Profia from the 70s.

Hate to repeat myself, but this is the one I'm most proud of right now:



Things will probably change when I've finally finished restoring my Agfa-Ansco.

shutter plane seems incongruent to film

or is this a mirror trick?

Prototype of the new SX-7000?

The idea is to keep astigmatism to a minimum - the back tilt helps the extreme top of the image see the hole as much of a circle as possible, as opposed to a narrow ellipse. Here's a quick diagram that I hope explains the idea:



Probably also helps with falloff, though that wasn't really the original intention.

Considering how quick the turnaround is when making pictures in my neighborhood with the trays set up in my basement, I'd say you're not far off the mark. Though of course it doesn't make the cool sounds an SX-70 does.

Why the angle? Looks like you have lines on the side to make it look like that's how the light will fall off. But I don't understand...

I'm still confused.
