Description
Close up of a vintage camera made by Graflex, model RB, Series B. This is my own working camera and the images in my Gallery "Unsung Heroes" were all shot with this camera. The RB stands for Revolving back. One of the main features of this camera is that the back rotates 90 degrees so you can change the format from a landscape format to portrait. The size of the the negative is 6 x 9 CM. or 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inched. This particular camera was manufactured in January of 1948. They have a vertical curtain shutter in the back. These shutters need to be wound up, the tension needs to be set and they have several slots aka apertures that also need to be set. .
