JP, dry fire your 210 at all the slow speeds and see if this is an occasional thing. The real answer is the shutter likely needs cleaning. If you just bought it..... see if KEH will service it. If it's a Copal shutter..... Copal is the manufacturer....Schneider made the lenses....not the shutters.
Ouch!My goodness, a field camera may be in the near future. I'm a natural born pack-mule but when I loaded up all my gear it weighed about 50, 55 pounds.
Ouch!
I carry a Wista DX, four lenses, six filmholders, spot meter, filters and accessories. My kit, plus pack, weighs in at just below 22 pounds...

It seems to have only happened at one second. It hasn't happened in a good long while, thankfully.
You do not need to modify a camera to take dry (or wet) plates. You just need the right plate holder. (Not a FILM holder - a PLATE holder. Chamonix makes an excellent one)
Well, I'll bet my four lenses together weigh less than your two. My usual kit consists of a Nikkor 90mm f/8 (the largest of the bunch), a small 135mm f/5.6 Plasmat, an Ektar 203mm f/7.7 and either a Nikkor M 300mm f/9 or a Fujinon A 240mm f/9. I have other lenses I'll switch in and out depending on where I'm working. For close quarters I'll add a Fujinon SW 75mm f/5.6 and leave out the longest lens, etc.FOUR LENSES!? I only carried two, a 210 and 300.

Maybe he's got an RB67 in there too...
My goodness, a field camera may be in the near future. I'm a natural born pack-mule but when I loaded up all my gear it weighed about 50, 55 pounds. Somehow I managed to fit it in my bag, granted the camera was sticking out of the top and my tripod was dangling off to the side, and that didn't include my meal I had to stash in my tripod. The weight isn't the worst issue so much as the bulk, OH the bulk. I think I'll see how it goes with the Sinar for a while before I do anything else.
When I got into LF for landscape years ago, I thought a monorail camera was the way to go, so I bought a Sinar F1. After one trip, with all the associated gear I said uncle (and I’m 6’5” 250 lbs) and bought a field camera. The F1 was relegated to still life in the studio. I eventually upgraded to a Sinar P before selling the whole kit and caboodle and converting to digital.
Close, I brought my Ricohflex vii. My gear is just heavy I suppose. My tripod head weighs a good few pounds I reckon.
