[LargeFormat] Singer Graphlex field camera

[Les Newcomer]

I've never heard of a Singer Graflex field camera,  I suspect this is 
either a Crown or Speed Graphic. (singer owned Graflex for a period of 
time)

If so and it has a Graflok back, it can use roll film backs to expand 
the film selection and reduce film costs.  The lack of a Graflok back 
seriously diminishes its usefulness and thus price.

You'll find the movements to be limited, so it's not really a field 
camera.  If it has a rangefinder it will probably be a Kalart which can 
be calibrated to any lens in the moderate wide to slightly long range.

If you could give us some more info I'll try to do better  You can also 
try http://www.graflex.org  and search the site.
