The Military Pacemaker Speed Graphic 4x5 camera system

Photos from a documentary still life shoot I did last weekend.  The camera is a 1950 Graflex "Pacemaker Speed Graphic" 4x5 with side mount rangefinder and 1951 Kodak Ektar 127mm lens.  This was loaned to me by a friend.  Great camera complete with case and accessories and looks brand new.  But I have to give it back....

The camera with kit.













Original flash bulbs.  You won't find these again.














The whole kit laid out.













Shooting Old Glory.



















Sharing the spotlight with the civilian Crown Graphic.













No, the military and civilian worlds never clash...













Dropped bed, ready for action.
