How much did you pay for this camera?

The Century Graphic cost me 150ukp with Schneider Xenar 3.5/105 (Linhof Selected), 3 double film holders and a rollfilm back.

I added a Schnedier Angulon 6.8/65 on Graflex lens board for 30ukp. I already had the Mamiya 2.8/80 so just had to make a lens board for it. the Componon I've had for years so just had to find a shutter, the Prontor-S it is in now was 6ukp from a camera fair. The Kodak Anastigmat 4.5/125 in Compur was another 6ukp. Tominon 4.5/135 in Copal Press 1 was 14ukp.

Latest purchase is a Pullin Pulnar 2.8/100, or rather a set of cells, only cost 10USD, need to find a #1 shutter with diaphragm for it:

Ian, did you follow the links and look at the ugly pictures of the ugly bag bellows etc.?

Yes, interesting stuff but a bit over my head really, the bellows is an interesting design, hope it works well for you.

I had a go at a portrait with the Tominon. Seems a decent lens for this kind of work, there is a touch of shake, either my dad moved or I nudged the camera when I released the shutter, it was 1/8sec at f11, should have used a faster shutter speed. Kodak Industrex MX125 film for non destructive testing developed in Kodak Microdol-X then processed with the 'Vintage Plate' preset in Silver EFEX 2.



Without processing:
