In Reply to: Re: What Model is My Kalart RF posted by Les on October 03, 2000 at 16:19:57:: Kalart is even worse at naming things than Graflex if you can imagine that.
: I have a Kalart manual and from your serial number and looking
at the several I have hear, I will make the following a s
sumptions:
: Yours is black
: you have either a man-hole cover on top or a focospot
attachment
: In the bottom window you have either a mirro or a prism.
: If it's a mirror it may be an E-1, E deluxe or an E-2. (some
of these names may denote the same model, I can't tell)
: If you have a prism, then you have an E deluxe Rangfinder which
is also called an EDEL 11. Now with that information and $2 you
still can't get a cup of coffe at starbucks. Most people don't know
model names or numbers of kalart RFs, it's usually "the black one
with the prism" or "the early one built in a tube" as far as I know
parts are strictly on a scavanger basis.
