Does anybody know of a camera repair outfit that can adjust the various focus elements of a 4x5 speed graphic, such as the rangefinder. My camera is a Korean War Signal Corps Anniversary, with which I shoot "combat" photography at WWII re-enactments. I'd like to have the rangefinder work better but it's beyond my ability to fix. Any suggestions? |

My suggestions would be Fred lusting first and Steve Grimes second. But I'm sure there are others.
Now are you sure it's an Anniversary? I thought all Korean theater cameras were Pacemakers.
Does it have a metal lensboard? What did the military call your camera (PH-104,C-3,C-6,etc) "m trying understand the impossible--military designations of Speed Graphic cameras. |

It is a pacemaker. My mistake. |
