Did any of the later 2X3 Graphics comes with cammed rangefinders?
thanks in advance

AFAIK, all had no rangefinder or side rangefinder. None with top RF.
Turn inventive and develop a top rangefinder transplant procedure.
Cheers,

No. The Kalart rangefinder installed in the 23s right up to the end used an eccentric [which I suppose could be called a cam, but it was built-in] which is found underneath the right side of the front door frame.

FWIW, my Miniature SG, #378308, has a side-mounted Kalart RF with a slotted sliding adjustment with set screw attached to the rail...not an eccentric such as I have on a Century Graphic. Fred. |

Alec, Fred, all this fine splitting of words is wonderful as long as it doesn't obscure the fact that 2x3 Pacemakers' rangefinders do not have interchangeable cams like those in the top RF 4x5s or in, to use a word that seems to be taboo here, Linhofs.
Cheers,

Funny, Dan. I thought I just said that! |

Dan...you are absolutely...indisputably...irrevocably correct! Side-mounted Kalart Rangefinders do not have interchangeable cams. Fred.:grin: |
