Does anyone recall or know the gentleman in Miss. who, about two years ago, sold a Zone VI 4x5 camera with a 210 mm Red Dot Artar in an electronic shutter on the auction site? The man said he purchased the set-up to produce some very large Ciba-chromes and had no further use for the equipment. The length of the lens (for a Red Dot Artar) and type of shutter in was mounted in makes it highly unusual and memorable item.

Does anyone recall seeing this same auction? I'd sure like to know how the buyer likes the camera/lens/shutter combination 2 years into the purchase.

Would an electronic shutter be in any way "anti-analog"? :confused:

No knowledge about the Zone VI sorry but, electronic shutter or not, would not make any difference in the way of capture. If the shutter is on a film camera. I'm sure many of the 35mm uploads here could be from cameras with electronic shutters.

You can't go wrong with a Red Dot Artar.
