Japanese Wooden Full plate (61/2 x 81/2) view camera w/ Goerz 7 inch Double-anastigmat Type B series 1b brass barrel lens - For Restoration
£221.00
This unbranded camera from Japan features a Goerz 7 inch Double-anastigmat Type B series 1b barrel lens. The lens has no shutter. The glass has some haze, which will decrease contrast in pictures. The aperture is smooth and works as expected.
Bellows are in fair condition but are light tight when tested with a light. Brass and silver coloured metal fittings. Wood is is good shape with dings and some chips as would be expected from a camera of this age. The lens board is NOT light tight and will need to be replaced. It has cracked and has screw holes in it without screws, so light will get in to your film.
This camera would be a great restoration project.

Warranty: AS-IS No warranty
Operating Condition: All knobs turn and movements work.
Cosmetic Condition: Bellows Very good. Body and ground glass Excellent. Lens as described above
