Will the P3 handle all 127 mm lenses or is the cam just for particular 127mm lenses. I was told that there is not a generic cam that will handle all...say 127mm lenses or all 135mm lenses. Comments or advice please. Barney |

The Super/Super Speed Graphic has seperate cams. So, what is the exact focal length of the 127mm Ektar? How about you folks out there with a 127mm Ektar and top rangefinder telling us what cam number you have? Thanks. Hey Les...I am going to send you a private message regarding a part I am looking for. |
