Ebonized Full Plate field camera 8.5"x6.5
€250.00 EUR
Condition:
This wooden field camera comes in ok condition for beeing about
80 years old or maybe even older. The ebonized wood and the nickel plated brass show some Patina
and wear but are still in useable condition. The bellows look good, and
authentic. I did a quick test and they seem lighttight. The maximum extension is about 40cm, thought the final 10cm are quite tough to move, so it might need a fix there. The camera comes with a
rotating fullplate back and a fitting fullplate holder. The holder offers a halfplate (aprox. 14cm x 11cm) insert which was used for wetplate. But other formats like 5x7 or 4x5 are possible if the proper redusinc frame is done.
The
camera does offer some movements, and is still very compact. It might
need some adjustment and minimal work but still offers a good starting
point.
It comes with an already drilled lensboard. If
you buy a lens form my collection for this camera i can adapt the lens
to it for free and combine shipping costs.
