5x7 Returns to Arca-Swiss offerings
robertgiles replied to rod_klukas's topic in News from the Photo World
I don't know if this is ok to say but I have a 5x7 and a 8x10 that I would trade for a Leica IIIf if it is ok to do and you are interested. The 8x10 has original wooden tripod and various frames. Both cameras have lens and bellows are in good shape. -

I need to find a source for my Nikon F3 decal has worn off and nearly gone. Is there any possibility of a repair shop that can fix this for me? Or a place to buy and install myself.

Aloha Bill, I Love that car. I haven't tried a Jupiter with my Zorki 4 yet, as soon as I get one I 'll try. I enjoy your posts. -
My wife and I were at a local restaurant a few nights ago when a young man came to take our order. He had some tattoos that were on his arm that had a Japanese look to them. He was fresh out of the USN and is here at Richmond KY attending Eastern Kentucky University. He wants a degree in photography, we talked and he said he needed a camera but he couldn't find any for sale in our area. My loving wife said " my husband has all of the cameras". He is interested in basic 35mm no frills. I thought about it and I told him I would come up with an outfit for $40.00 for him next Saturday. I sold it cheap with photographers handbook, lens, etc. My reason to sell is it is not a gift, it is an investment for both of us. My hometown is 32,000 people plus 17,000+ at EKU. I took him a choice of Canon AE-1 program and Pentax ME both with lens. When digital took hold film cameras lost value and I stocked up on great gear. I would like to see more young people be interested in photography. EKU has a lot of vets here since Vietnam and is quite popular. Anyhow, if you have a working camera that you will sell to these young folks cheap, you will feel good. I did. The look in his eyes as he looked the camera over told me alot. Talk to your young waiter or waitress next chance and see what they are preparing for in life and maybe you may be interested in helping him or her. I feel good.:)

I had the same problem and sent it to Garry's camera repair and it works like it is brand new about $50.00 and a week. And guaranteed for months. I don't remember the phone number .
