Gowlandflex repair and modification. We added a Linhof handle, repaired the alignment of the lower optic with a new lens and spacing adapter, and replaced the top lens with one that had the correct speed for focusing. There were several other adjustments needed to bring this lens back into working order. This camera now works as intended. #skgrimes #gowlandflex #camerarepair https://www.instagram.com/p/CE635RonGIr/?igshid=a5fvcgf1buwh

It was an honor to present my work and also demonstrate some of the gear I use at NYU Tisch School of the Arts Photography department's Large Format Class. The Gowlandflex 4x5 twin lens reflex was a bit of a hit. Many thanks to Tom Drysdale for the invite. In the '80s I was a student in that very classroom.
