The sensation of firing with a 4x5 Pacemaker with the sportsfinder and a flash gun on it is absolutely unique. It is really sad that flashbulbs are disappearing and nobody is producing them at amateurs price. I don't see much fun in using this camera compared to the "miniature" Pacemaker 23 unless I have a flashgun on it. I is true that I don't have an enlarger for this format. Maybe that would change my opinion. (hey! update on 28/12/2002 I bought a Durst Laborator 1000 ! I changed already my mind and my Graflex 4x5 is really great even without flashbulbs)
