<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3878229, member: 19463&quot;]In my younger days when I was taking photos with a view camera, I enjoyed salvaging lenses from old folders.&nbsp; In their day, many cameras were fitted with a variety of lens options including upgrades like Goertz Dagors and Planars that cost originally several time more than the camera and standard lens. These were really sharp lenses and usually fitted in high quality shutters that worked well with no servicing.&nbsp; Usually the dial set Compur shutters were used on upgrade lenses.&nbsp; I generally threw away the cameras which usually had broken parts and dry rotted bellows making the lenses dirt cheap.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
