Large format stereo cameras spotted

[Brian Reynolds <reynolds@xxxxxxxxx>]

I thought some on this list might be interested in the following.

The January 1999 KEH Camera Brokers catalog <URL:http://www.keh.com/>
lists two large format (5x7) stereo cameras.  The first (in section
OF01 Large Format Collectibles, Complete Cameras) is a Ernemann Globus
Stereo 5x7 with 135mm f/6.3 lenses and a red belows.  It is listed as
excellent+ for $1035.  The web page has the price on this down to
$919.  The second (in section TD03 Stereo, Folding Cameras) is a
Conley Stereoscopic Pro 5x7 with a Wollensak Reg (Registered,
Regulated?)  shutter.  The lenses aren't mentioned.  The shutter is
marked as inoperative, but otherwise the camera is listed as excellent
for $465.  Both of these cameras have pictures in the catalog.

There are also a couple of 6x13 cameras listed (an ICA Stereolette
Cupido and a Nettel Stereax) in the Stereo, Folding Cameras section.

For those who don't know them, it is generally considered (on
rec.photo.equipment.*) that KEH conservatively under rates the
equipment that they sell.

The Conley is really tempting, but I have enough other cameras sitting
around.  I have to figure out exactly what I want to do with all of
them, and what formats I'm going to settle on.
