I have had this camera sine 1992. It is in very good shape, still has original glass. All that is missing is the handle.
This camera is known as one of the best field cameras ever made.
Stats:
Front Rise 4" This is achieved manually
Front Fall 2.25" also manual
There is an additional "Vernier" adjustment that allows for another 1/2" either way — a variation of the Deardorff sliding lens panel and Wisner’s geared front rise on the Pocket Expedition. With this adjustment you can effect rise or fall without altering tilt. Altogether the Kodak has 7.25 " of rise and fall.
Front Shift 2.25" each way 4.5" altogether
Front Tilt Base 90° forward, 0° back
Front Tilt Axis limited only by the bellows
Front Swing 20°, although 360 degrees can be achieved by removing a small screw.
Rear Base Tilt 30° back and 90° forward
Rear Swing 12° forward, each side
The aluminum construction makes it durable, rigid and fairly light, weighing about 12 lbs.
I will add photos soon, but you can read about this great camera here: https://www.largeformatphotography.info/kodak/masterview.html
This camera has been my baby for 3 decades, so I want it to go to a good home. Email me if interested at altbiers @ gmail dot com.

If I were thirty years younger, I'd be seriously tempted.

Or if I didn't have a septic system to worry about...

I have placed the camera on Ebay. Happy bidding!
