Folks
Tried to sell this earlier with no bites...figured I'd try again.

Polaroid 110b Alpenhause conversion. This is basically a 4x5 handheld rangefinder.
Takes standard 4x5 holders and also has the ground glass if you prefer using that. The rangefinder is bright, contrasty and accurate. Lens is flawless and speeds all work. Body's mint, too.

Comes with original leather case, original instructions, a DVD on adjusting the RF if that's ever an issue, a ND filter and I'll toss in 2 film holders and a couple boxes (expired but cold stored) of B&W film - FP4+ and Chinese ERA film which I can attest is surprisingly nice stuff.
One nice thing about this camera is the lens cover has a built-in pinhole in it -- so you can easily do 4x5 pinholes, if you like.

I simply don't shoot enough 4x5 film to justify this and I really hate a beautiful machine like this just sitting around not getting used.

More info on this camera at: http://alpenhause.com/

(CDN)$800 which includes shipping to US and Canadian addresses. Overseas I'll have to get a quote. Paypal OK but I prefer check/money order/etc if possible.

Any questions, please feel free to ask!

Very beautiful indeed. Am I correct in assuming that this model can deal with double-sided inserts and polaroid? I am very interested.

I have one of these. The lens is a very impressive performer. I often use with roll film backs too. The rangefinder is a great feature. I should use it more....

Not sure about Polaroid -- I'm assuming so but cannot say for sure. I do have an old 545 holder that fits on standard 4x5 backs (happy to include that too, what the hell!)
