Selling a fantastic Speed Graphic / Rollei Heidosmat kit. This is the famed Rollei Heidsomat 150mm f/2.8 lens that comes very close to the same results as the legendary Aero Ektar lens. However, you can actually fold the Rollei lens up inside the camera, plus it is super lightweight and far easier to use. Trust me...I have both.
This Speed Graphic has the modified front standard which provides you with swing and forward tilt. Granted, with the Rollei lens you can't get excessive with this but you can still use it enough to increase the bokeh even more. The sample image included was taken with this kit to demonstrate the fantastic bokeh this lens provides. In my opinion, it's even sharper than the Aero Ektar.
I've attached a 77mm filter (glass removed) to the front of the lens with quality epoxy. In other words, you now have a 77mm threaded ring. This permits the use of 77mm neutral density filters which helps out a lot for specific lighting conditions. With a set f/2.8, you can only control so much with the focal plane shutter only going to 1/1000, so the use of a neutral density filter helps out perfectly.
Included is a lupe and several film holders. The holders are not tested.
As for the Speed Graphic, it's a user and not a shelf queen. Shutter speeds have worked for me just fine. Are they spot on? Heck if I know. All I know is that my images have been great at various speeds with no issue and they sound good to me. Some of the external items had been stripped off to help with size/weight when it was being used with the Aero Ektar. I've included what I have in a zip lock bag. Not sure if everything is there to restore it, but then again no need to restore this anyway. It's a specialty camera as is.
Could shut a little tighter, but I haven't messed with this to adjust it as it still shuts...and that was my end goal.
