Graflex 4 x 5 Pacemaker Crown Graphic - The end of an era. This 1971 Crown was made near the end of the run for the famous Graphic series cameras. Date code indicates June 1971. They were only produced for two more years before Graflex went out of business. This camera is in excellent shape, ready to have a lens installed and provide years of reliable service. The top Rangefinder and bed focus scales are calibrated for a 135mm lens. The GG and Ektalite screen are in excellent shape and the GG metal view hood snaps up in place. The camera focuses smoothly, as well a everything locking in place. The bellows are supple and light tight, the body leatherette is completely intact. You won't find a cleaner example.

Is the shutter in good working order?

 

[sharpnikkor]

The Speed Graphic has a shutter, the Crown Graphic doesn't. The Crown is lighter and slightly smaller than a Speed, an advantage for field work. This Crown weighs in at 4.69 lbs...

What lens is the rangefinder set up for? Do you have a lens for the camera?

 

[sharpnikkor]

The rangefinder amd focus scales are calibrated for a 135mm lens. Probably for an Xenar lens for a 1971 vintage Crown. I have an Xenar for sale that would work OK though it is older than the camera.
