KW Patent Etui
Plaubel Sopracomar 3.9/100

From time to time I have lusted for a Patent Etui in 9x12, but never found with a price I liked. How often I lust mostly depends on how the pain in my back is doing. 😛

New to me Zeiss Super Ikonta III

New to me Zeiss Super Ikonta III

From Seattle Goodwill eBay auctions for $85 shipped! Wasn't listed as a III, and for parts and repair because they said the rangefinder was misaligned. When I received it everything worked great! Shutter, rangefinder, everything seems good! Running a roll of Portra 160, now if I can just get rid of the cigarette smell 😕

In my humble opinion, the most beautiful 120 folder of all, the Vöigtlander Bessa II:

Nice Bessa II. I like the black ones, so here's my Bessa RF w/ a Heliar lens.

Do the early Black Bessa's have combine viewfinder/rangfinder? Coupled too, no?

Ah, oh yes, that one is on the "to buy" list... someday 🙄

Rangefinder is coupled but it has its own eyepiece, separate from the viewfinder.

I love these black Heliar RF...

Cheers!

That's a wonderfully compact rig for 120 - 6x6. An automatic stop for the film winder is a major plus, in my opinion.

Thank you Andrew
I really like this one and was surprised by how good the photos came out.

Sometimes projects take longer than expected

Sometimes projects take longer than expected

I started on this Isolette II project in 2005. I recovered the camera in leather. I tried to repair the shutter to no avail but a fellow RFFer sent me a shutter with lens. It was the bellows that did me in. I tried to repair the light leaks but it was futile. It sat on a shelf until a few weeks ago. I found it and googled for bellows makers. I recommend Sandeha Lynch very highly. He is in the UK. Very fast service. He appears to be able to make bellows for about anything. It is now loaded with Portra 400.
