<p>Hello All,</p> <p>I just recently obtained this well-worn but working tailboard Graphic (I assume) 4x5 view camera with a Kodak No. 2 Supermatic shutter and the 127mm f/4.7 Kodak Ektar lens. After a thorough checking over it looks it should be completely functional and although I think it's a beauty, it's not "pretty" if you know what I mean, at least not yet. The shutter works flawlessly and there are zero bellows defects... the lens seems excellent! Some day I'll get around to restoring it, I definitely think it's worthy of the effort; I plan to test it tomorrow.</p> <p><img id="yui_3_7_3_3_1359501020500_439" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8503/8427425241_e9bfc3cfae_z.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p><img id="yui_3_7_3_3_1359501056041_438" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8470/8427427911_ec96bce09c_z.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>In the mean time, does anyone have any more knowledge about this camera, particularly it's official designation and the time frame of when it was made? I'll post some pics from it as soon as I can. Thanks in advance!</p>
