I have used it off and on, not just7 x17 film but other films I cut or taped onto the film holders. That includes 11x14 color tranny film cut to 5 1/2 x 14, b&w and color 120 taped across the entire length and in all instances I got full coverage from the Focus 12 in No 394730 Goerz Dagor F: 6.8. This is a Folmer & Schwing Division Eastman Kodak out of Rochester NY. 7x17 camera with plenty of marks, scratches, etc. There are also what I think are paint marks on the ground glass. However,the bellows is perfect, the tilt bellows is perfect, the lens is clean and without fungus and the Acme shutter is right on . The lens and shutter were cleaned and timed by Henry Paine Camera Repair outof Stockton, Ca. If you don't know about Henry and you care about your gear, get to know him. For some reason the previous owner eleminated the rear swings ( didn't swing very much to begin with),but the rear shifts are there, see pix as I detail every part. The front movements are as shown with rising lens board and additional front bellows that allows for quite a bit of movement.The lens, shutter and lens board are included. This a F: 6.8 to F: 45 with shutter speeds from T to 1/300. One 7x17 wooden film holder is included, it is in good used condition and I have used it inin the field and in the studio. I am also including a 2nd film holder with one side I am sure is untrustworthy and and one side that might be okay, not sure, so included free (includes darkslides).All photographs were taken today, 24 August, 2008 by me of the actual camera. The camera , lens , film back (plus one free film back mentioned above) will be professionally packed and fully insured and shipped express, next business day on receipt of payment.The camera is as in the 12 provided photos, and ; once again, is fully insured against loss or damage.

Henry says this old shutter works as good as it can, but here is a Revision, the "B" Bulb function on this Acme Shutter does not Work.I had Henry check her out one more time and he called out the "B" issue. I never used Bulb (the prep time is quite long, the bigger the camera the longer "T" needs to be open,so didn't notice. "T"' thru 1/300 absolutely work and have worked for over 25 years in my experience. For some reason the previous owner eleminated the rear swings ( didn't swing very much to begin with),but the rear shifts are there, see pix as I detail every part.
