So it was shot with a view camera probably. Sheet film probably. 4x5 would be my guess. Some 4x5 Leicas are the Linhoff Master Techniquea, Wista, and Speed Graphic. You focus with the rangefinder and look through the little window or wire frames and take the picture. Click But you make sure you remembered to take the dark slide out and cock the shutter. And so on. I'm up for it!!!! Mark Rabiner
