Packard air shutter
. This nice 8x10 Eastman 2D field camera has installed in it a packard air shutter with new squeeze bulb and hose. The packard shutter is very useful when making exposures with barrel lenses. The opening on this packard shutter is about 85mm. This Packard shutter could be removed if you want to use conventional view camera lenses with built-in shutters on this camera. The hose on the air bulb release is about 6' long. This shutter has been tested, and it is in good working order. This shutter is activated by squeezing on the attached air bulb. Both of the included lens boards have a push pin on them. If the pin on the lens board is pushed in it activates a setting in the packard shutter that will give you an instant shutter firing at about 1/20th second. If the pin is pulled out the packard shutter will open and close normally with Bulb or Time long exposures. This camera also has a flash sych. outlet on it wired to the packard shutter that uses a bi-post synch. cord. to fire a flash. Please consult Youtube or the internet for instructions on how to use a squeeze bulb properly to activate a packard shutter.
