(2), attached to the camera back and supported by a tube
guide on the lensboard, is extendible and in turn supports the
bellows by six roller carriers (3). A webbed strap (3) secures
the bellows assembly to the lensboard frame while the
camera is in transit.
e. Lensboard Assembly. The lensboard (2, fig. 1-5) is
one of the upright members of the camera, supported by the
lensboard carriage base plate (9) by two side frames (1). The
assembly is provided with an inner lensboard frame (17),
receiving the lens mounting plate (18) equipped to hold the 19
or 24 inch lens (3). The inner lensboard frame is movable
and can be adjusted horizontally and vertically by two manual
control knobs (5 and 10, fig. 1-4) at the darkroom end of the
camera. The lensboard carriage base plate (9, fig. 1-5)
provides support for the lensboard assembly and travels
horizontally on the camera rail (8) within a limited area. The
base plate is driven by an induction-start, induction-run
reversible motor controlled by a switch (14) on the back
support plate. A handwheel (7) provides fine focusing
adjustment for the lensboard assembly.
