Good evening everyone, I’ve made the decision to sell off my personal 6x9 camera to help fund a camera for an upcoming trip. This was built several years ago and I’ve only used it a handful of times since completing it. It has a permanently mounted single coated f/5.6 Super Angulon that is mounted in an indexed focusing mount for ‘scale‘ or ’zone’ focusing.

The finder shown in these images is long gone and replaced with a larger finder that is brighter and much better if you wear glasses. I’ll post pictures of the camera with the new finder tomorrow.

While the camera is super light weight and designed to be used handheld it has a fixed Arca Swiss plate on the bottom that also serves to protect the lens and keep stress off of the helical when the camera is in your camera bag. You will need to use an Arca style clamp on your tripod head with this camera.

Here is a link to some of the other cameras that I’ve built if you are interested in checking them out: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dirkfletcher/albums/with/72157719782862444


Thank you for looking!

Thank you 'Required' and hey HAP, ironically growing up, I always wanted to shoot with a Veriwide which is probably what inspired me to make this one.
Only this one is a stop faster and a pound lighter!
Have a great weekend!

Here are some images of the camera with the finder and strap that are shipping with it.
