Here is a Miniature Speed Graphic with a focal plane shutter, with speeds from 1/10 second to 1/1000, plus Time, and with a Zeiss Tessar 105mm f3.5 lens, Nr.2430004, in a Compur-Rapid shutter, with speeds from 1 second to 1/400, plus Time and Bulb, and with apertures from f3.5 to f32. This camera is in good working condition, except the rangefinder needs to be adjusted. There are lots of sites on the web that explain how to do it, and I will leave that to the winning bidder. The Vernier focusing scale on the bed is actually quite accurate. This camera also has the most accurate way to focus and frame on the ground glass back. The focal plane shutter is working, but I make no guarantee as to accuracy.

The external lens glass is clean and scratch free, but with minor internal dust. I see no fungus or mold. The shutter speed and aperture controls are just slightly stiff. I see no oil on either set of blades. The front door unlatches, latches and locks into place as it should. The front standard slides easily back and forth on the bed track. The rear viewfinder door opens and latches properly. The bellows are in good condition, with no damage or light leaks. This is a great medium format field read more
