Rochester Optical Pony Premo No 5 Camera 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 Dagor Lens. Camera is in very condition overall considering its age. Comes with Dagor Lens that looks very clear. There is one small air bubble in the bottom left of the front element as pictured.
This is not uncommon for cameras of this time and should not cause any issues. All shutter and diaphragm functions work. 1 Second seems more like a half second. Bellows appear to be light tight and are still very supple. Rise is working with no issues. Camera closes and locks as it should. The back releases as it should and still has tension to hold film holders with no issue.
It is missing the ground glass and one of the wingnuts on the side is not original. Overall though in very good condition considering it was made somewhere between 1898 and 1903.
