Can anyone help? I have a Graflex 6x9 which would appear to be an

acquire one.
Is this a Speed Graphic or the Single Lens Reflex? At any rate, if
you intend to use different focal length lenses, a rangefinder would
be useful only for one particular lens. You'd still generally use
the ground glass for focusing any other lens.
Can anyone comment on these Cameras-the quality of the lenses and
also its
ergonomics.
Kodak Ektars, and Schneider Xenotars are excellent.
In particular, I am thinking of mounting The Graflex with a Schneider
Xenotar, I would also like to try the 105 Voigtlander Apo Lanthar;
has any
body tried either of these press camera lenses?
I have an 80mm Schneider Xenotar in addition to a 101mm Ektar for my
2 1/4 x 3 1/4 Pacemaker. The 80 is a nice lens, but doesn't
completely cover the negative. Some vignetting.
