• Toko Nikki II 4X5 camera
• Computar Symmetrigon 150mm F6.3 lens
• Schneider Tele-Arton 270mm F5.5 lens
• Three 4X5 film holders (used, modern, tested light-tight)
Camera Features:
• Front movements include swing, rise and tilt
• Rear movements include swing, tilt and retro geared focusing
• 390mm bellows draw
• Camera uses common, easy-to-find, Technika-style lens boards
• Back can easily be mounted in vertical or horizontal position
Camera Condition:
• This camera is used, tested and working as it should
• Cosmetically, this camera is in good shape and shows normal signs of use
• Bellows is brand new and tested light-tight

• Spring back is tight and works perfectly

Computar Symmetrigon 150mm F6.3:
• One of the least known LF lenses, but one of the best performers out there
• Superb sharpness and contrast
• 72° coverage
• 150mm is a normal-angle of view lens on 4X5 cameras (similar to a 50mm lens on 35mm cameras)
• Exceptionally clean, multi-coated glass
• No fungus, haze, scratches or other major issues to note
• Shutter is in good working condition and fires nicely on all speeds
• No caps included
Schneider Tele-Arton 270mm F5.5:
• "Tele" -design lenses require about half of the bellows draw compared to conventional lenses of the same focal length, making this an ideal field-use lens
• 270mm is a tele/portrait angle of view lens on 4X5 cameras (similar to a 100mm lens on 35mm cameras)
• Generally clean, multi-coated glass
• Glass shows minor blemish on the front element's coating (will not affect image quality)
