Thanks Bob. From what I have observed there are 3 versions/styles of the 5x7 III...
First had a chrome rear standard lock knobs on the side and the RF housing just below, like the early 4x5... I have only seen a couple of these so it must have only lasted a single batch or so.
Second had the knobs on top also with the chrome rear standard.
Third style has a black anodized rear standard and no more bubble level built into the right side of the bed and the SN moved from the bed to the top shoe. This third style is the only style I have seen the color versions in - RED, GREY, - and though I have never seen it in 5x7 - GREEN and WHITE/IVORY was indicated in the catalog.
Does the S/N info give any insight as to when each change may have occurred?
