Description: Graflex Century Graphic with the lovely red bellows, Prontor-SVS 101mm f4.5 lens, Kalart rangefinder, and 23 graphic 6x9 film back. I’ve taken it apart, cleaned it up and taken it through its paces. -bellows look great, no light leaks. -does NOT include the focus panel back. -rangefinder is clear and has worked well for me. Could probably be fine tuned by someone with patience and a focus panel. -the film back is missing the dark slide, and part of the film advance mechanism doesn’t work. You can advance the film with the knob no problem. But it doesn’t “lock” and stop advancing at each frame. However the frame counter does move, and I was able to put a whole roll through it with no issue by just carefully turning the advance knob until the counter got to the next number. Someone more determined or knowledgeable than I could maybe fix it, but I was able to use it as-is with zero image overlap. -once cleaned the lens appears very clear, and the shutter works well. I don’t have the equipment to test shutter times precisely, but to my eye it looks good (maybe lags a bit at low speed?) and I found it perfectly useable. Bold mode works with no issue. As mentioned, film tested, the few b&w images near the end are photos I took with this camera in December 2024
