I am working on a a project camera and want the business end of a folding camera, the rest can be junk.

What have you got and what would you like for it?

Looking for 6x9 coverage but willing to work with 6x6, 6x7, just bigger than a 645.

Donations accepted, for those that want me to pay shipping with a small donation to APUG!
 
Still looking!

are you looking for something specifically light-weight/small or does it not matter?
 
It doesnt matter at all. Just need a lens shutter combo unit like whats on an agfa isollette or similar. I have one that works so i an not going to tear it part.

I just got a shutter/lens combo of an Ansco B2 Speedex Jr, apparently 6x6 coverage with the retaining ring. Rick A included it in a box of free stuff, I could pass it on to you.

Shutter seems inop but I'm not sure. Has stops from f/11 to f/22 but would open at least another stop if you figured out how to get the aperture blades out of the way.
 
That sounds good I'll send a pm.

Looking for others too for 6x9 maybe?
