Item specifics
Brand: GraflexCondition: Used
 No you are not seeing double - I have two speed graphics to sell.

The Schneider 150mm lens (picture 3& 5) is not for sale as it belongs to my Arca Swiss Reflex. I just put it on the camera because it looks cool. And the mini tripod is not included either - it's just there to hold the camera up.

Items for sale are:

Camera serial No 882834
  • this is the better body
  • includes viewfinder
  • lens board (with rivetted plate)
  • spring back with ground glass and folding shade
  • rails and focusing are smooth
  • no lens with this camera (Schneider lens in Picture is for illustration only)
  • no cable for lens shutter
  • no rangefinder
  • no rear shutter curtain
  • release to open camera case is on right hand side
  • bellows appears to be in good condition
  • sports finder

Camera 2 serial 895570
  • includes Kodak Ektar 127m lens f4.7 (shutter sounds smooth on 1 sec)
  • cable trip to lens shutter
  • rear shutter curtain - appears to be fully functional
  • Kalart range finder (should have cam matching the lens, mirrors need re silvering)
  • Grafmatic back (missing parts)
  • sports finder
 So you can see how I ended up with two bodies. It is a project I never really started. That said camera 1 is fully functional if you put the lens on it, focus on ground glass and trip the lens with your finger. Ideally you would switch things around so that the spring back is on the camera with coupled lens and rangefinder. It is all pretty low tech and should be fun - I just haven't found the time in the past 10 years. Let's face it - I'm never going to get around to it.

There is plenty of material on the internet about these cameras check out http://graflex.org/speed-graphic/


I have other gear for sale ( or to be listed soon) including

1. Cambo bag bellows & recessed board,
2. Super Angulon Lens 90mm,
3 Cambo Monorail
4 Lisco Film holders,
5 Large Format Photography Books,
7.heavy duty Gitzo tripod (supports this camera effortlessly),
8. Portable Film changing room
9 Developing tank for Sheet Film
10 Pentax 15mm f4 lens

Questions and answers about this item
 Q: Hello, Do you send in France, and at what price Thank you and best regards
A: Yes - each camera weighs approx 2.5kg. allowing 500g for packing makes it 5.5kg approx. This should cost $142aud airmail and $66.80 sea mail. I have never used sea mail - it is likely to be very slow.
