I have seen some Graflex 'Supers" on ebay with, and without view finders. Were the viewfinders standard or did they come in with a particular year of production. I have looked at the history of the lenses on this site and they dont seem to mention viewfinders. If a RF is not coupled on a 'Super" how does one make it 'coupled'?Thanks, Mark

Silly me, I have looked at a history of the camera on this site, Mark

As far as I can tell, the optical viewfinder on the Supers was simply an option all the way through the production...

All the rangefinders are _supposed_ to be coupled. If one is not, then it would be either due to a missing cam or broken linkage. The missing cam is a whole lot easier to fix...
