Graflex Crown/Speed Graphic 4x5 

 100% TESTED READY TO SHOOT - 4 STAR+++++ 

this is a speed graphic converted to a crown graphic

*special note.   Someone removed the focal plane shutter and in effect converted this to a crown graphic for front shutter use only.  this is not a problem but should be noted as the focal plane shutter curtains have been removed and will not function.  This does not affect the camera function but will feel a little heavier than a crown graphic since the focal plane shutter is still intact.  It is an exception and therefore I have priced the camera accordingly.  Makes for a great bargain!!

THIS IS NOT AN ESTATE FIND - EXCELLENT CAMERA - FULLY TESTED 

Full Functional and ready to make memories.

DETAILS: 

• Shutter works as intended except for "B". The bulb setting does not hold.   All apertures All speeds Press Focus all working
• Lens is a Kodak Ektar 127mm f/4.7  with excellent glass.  Much less lens dust than average.  Plus ++ lens.
• Top Viewfinder Excellent
• Bellows - Checked numerous times with LED flash & 5X's magnifying glasses to be without light leaks.  Very Nice. 
• Side Strap - Excellent, good working condition. 
• Carriage Rails/Yoke tracks in and out smoothly.  No damage to rear yoke guides. 
• Front Door Lock for closure is excellent.
• Kalart Rangefinder will focus as intended. Clear/Sharp images.  Accurate.  In my opinion it does NOT need adjusted. The opening where a focuspot would go should be taped in black to eliminate stray light from entering. 
• Infinity Stops are accurate. 
• Graflok Back Complete with Viewing hood Ground Glass and Fresnel Lens. This one is Nr. Mint 
• Tripod sockets in excellent condition.
• Excellent Body
