Hello,
Could one of you experts on authenticity tell me if the accessory focusing panels for Super D Graflex's are different than the ones supplied for Pacemaker Graphics with "Graflex" backs, etc.?
I have seen ads for "Graflex" focus panels and descriptions will say "correct version for D cameras". I thought they were all the same? Since I am more of a collector, I want to make sure I have the correct version for my Super D.
Thanks for your help, as always!

Folks,
Cancel my question....I e-mail a friend who's a Graflex collector at the same time I posted this message. There are several versions of the Graflex focusing panel. The Super D Graflex version is different from other reflex cameras. It is distigushed by chrome hardware and is wood/leather covered. The Series D Graflex version has gray hardware and is wood/leather covered. The gray version is a lot more common and used on many models. ALL REFLEX cameras had the wood panels. The panel for the Graphic View with a Graflex back is metal. A rare version with black hardware was used on very old Speed Graphics.
I'm sure there are many other versions.
In collecting, nothing is ever simple! Take care.
