I have a National Photocolor One Shot 3x4 Camera (AKA Tri Color Camera) and am in need of an instruction manual for the camera. The camera is designed to take 3 in camera separations at the same time by using pellicle mirrors. I would like to get the camera operational and therefore in need of some information that appears to be scarce.
1. I am looking for an instruction manual or information so i can check the register or alignment of the pellicle mirrors.
2. The mirrors that are in the camera are at least 35 years old and may have had some deterioration or fading. I have heard that these mirrors are still available but have no idea who could provide.
3. I have 12 sets of 3x4 film holders for the camera but they are Folmer Graflex Plate Type II holders for glass plates. I would like to know if regular graflex 3x4 septums would work to convert these to film use.
I have checked the regular sources of antique manuals and photo sites onthe web but there does not seem to be much information on these camera that I can find.
If anyone can help me with this camera it would be greatly appreciated.
