Oh, wow. Another intriguing camera that has me sprinting to ebay...
Shot this w my Veriwide 100. Quick ‘scan’ of the film on my lightpad taken w my iphone.
If you are looking for a Veriwide 100, the things to look out for is the film transport works properly, and the strap lugs are solid/secure. Those are way underbuilt and easily pop out. This is why I never use them, but use a camera strap attached to the tripod mount.
Mine has the original Leitz VF:
Your Viewwide 100 is in such a nice condition! I have been looking for one but can't seem to find any in usable condition.
Most I’ve seen have really led a rough life. I think they were used by pros for group photos etc.
Mine came from the owner of Paul’s Photo in Torrance (my local shop) where the dood behind the counter mentioned the owner was selling off his film collection, and maybe there was something there I would find interesting!
One look through that VF sealed the deal!
Nice! It looks like it's hardly been used. I stopped by our local camera store, District Camera at Burke Virginia, to pick up some film today. The store just got about over 20 film SLR bodies to the inventory, but no medium format bodies.
Yeah I have noticed that medium format cameras are much harder to find in camera stores. It’s either p&s cameras or 35mm SLRs.
Come to Vienna. I dropped off some film a few weeks ago and discovered this block with a bunch of used camera gear stores. Tons of stuff. They’re hardly ever open, though, since 80% of the business is online.
Hi, would you mind to share its location/website here?
If you search for Westlicht in the Westbahnstrasse in Vienna, you see the first and most prominent one (there’s Ostlicht and Westlicht, one is gear, the other one images), across the street is Camera31 and close to that one is another store. Down the street is Joe Geier. There is also Foto Borse, but I have never seen it. There may be more.
Well, I'm not familiar with Vienna at all, but I hope I can find those stores online. I know Jo Geier's webshop (mintandrare), I usually buy my Voigtlander lenses from him.
Thanks!
