Here is a fantastic Folmer Graflex Speed Graphic Camera 4x5 with a Kodak Ektar f: 4.7 127mm lens #ER2605. This features a Kalart Synchronized Range Finder. Includes 6 cartridges, one mounting bracket thing and a Spring Kit as well as a carrying case which has good vinyl but the metal corners/hardware do show signs of corrosion, its leather handle is worn but intact. I can't find a serial number on the Camera and don't know it's exact age but it appears to be one of the older/first models based on the design and construction. There is just a metal placard on top. I would say it is in pretty remarkable condition for it's age - there are some minor signs of age and wear, there is some lifting of the vinyl on the back panel (pictured) but the rest of the casing is well intact. The Leather handle is supple and in great shape. I have lightly cleaned it. All lenses appear to be nice and clear. The bellows appear well intact. (untested) Now I am no expert of antique or vintage cameras and this is as found, and therefore sold as is, it is being sold for parts or repair as I have no way of testing is out. It was recently purchased from an avid enthusiasts collection of antique and vintage cameras. (I will be happy to try to test certain functions for you if possible but you will have to be very specific in your request, look over the pictures read more
