Linhof “Technar” 4×5, 75mm f5.6 Super Angulon 14344051

Details

This Linhof 4×5 camera is similar to a Technar in that there is no bellows and the lens is mounted in a helicoid. That is pretty much were it stops. This camera has front rise and is presently adjusted for about +10mm as its null setting. The movements are taped either to be fixed or to prevent light leaks. I am content leaving it as-is as the setting is pretty much perfect for most work. The camera shows average edge wear. The lens focuses smoothly. The shutter is accurate and the aperture works well. The glass is clean and clear with no haze, marks or fungus. This particular camera is a one owner that was acquired from Ken Hanson in NYC. I suspect the work was completed by Marty Forscher. It is very cool and I have never seen another like it.
