    There is no 0.0 size, but there are both sizes #0 and #00.

    Thanks
    I think you misunderstand. It does not say "COPAL - N 0.0" it says "COPAL - NO. 0" - i.e. "COPAL - NUMBER 0" - Copal shutters are often marked like eg. "C O P A L - N O . 3" etc - the spacing of the letters is confusing.

    Have fun, Bob.

    I have a Toyo/Omega 45D as a backup to my 45GX in the studio and my son uses it in the field. They are very good cameras and are more rugged than the 45E and 45F but you loose the interchangeable bellows. The camera without lens will run between $150 and $200. $350 with lens sounds like a good deal.
    DIGITAL IS FOR THOSE AFRAID OF THE DARK.

    Yes confusing because not just he spacing but lettering also. The NO really looks like a N0. See attached.



    Thanks

    Thanks, I was please with the outcome of this purchase. For me just starting into LF (other then my brief experience with a graphic view) I think this will work fine for me. Interchangeable Bellows is a non-issue for me at the stage.

    Thanks again
