A nice little 3.25 X 4.25 Crown Graphic with a 135mm f4.7 Optar lens in Graphex shutter. Camera is in good shape, rangefinder is synched to 135mm lens and works fine, focusing is smooth, shutter fires on all speeds including T and B and shutter and aperture blades open and close smoothly and are oil free. Glass is in fine shape with just a few cleaning wisps and the shutter release on the body works fine. Comes with 3 double film holders.
$80.00US plus shipping

I've always wanted a press camera, and I'm in Ottawa, so this is intriguing. Can it take a rollfilm back? I seem to recall some warning about 3x4 cameras having to have the graflok back to have any chance of fitting a rollfilm back to them. I don't have the capability to develop or scan sheet film.
 
hsandler>>>>> yes you need a graflok back to use roll film backs on the 3x4 Crown. The graflok backs and the roll film backs can be found occasionally but can be expensive.
