Indeed, Cambo is Dutch made.
A pic of mine
I've been on the lookout for one of these lenses for years, after I bought one on eBay that came totally trashed (broken aperture, etc.) like 4 years ago. Finally got one for quite a steal on eBay, that wasn't trashed! I just so happened to have a flange that was the right size and an extra Pacemaker lens board so took a saw to it and hacked a rough hole into the board, glued the flange to it, and put it all together. Looks pretty nice on my Speed - which funnily enough is a US Army Signal Corps model, which now has a (I believe) German reconnaissance lens on the front. A clash of history.
I took a few test shots on instant film and the results are pretty stellar. It covers the 3x4 Fujiroid perfectly. A tad bit of vignetting on 4x5 focused at infinity. Shot some regular film too and will develop later tonight. I also need to try putting this on my Pentax 67.
Looks good, Bryan. I bet it produces a bright ground glass image!

How do you like the Topcor Lens??A little glamour shot of my latest toy:

I hate to admit it but I've only used it on one shot. Acquitted itself nicely, IMO. I need more experience with it to say more. I guess I'm just not a 90mm guy at this point. I use my 120mm Super-Symmar for about 80% of my shots.
beauty of a camera... reached out to Arca regarding an 8x10, whoa... few pennies
