The two models are near identical: the Super Speed Graphic has a 1/1000 sec Graflex Optar lens, the Super Graphic does not. The series uses rangefinder cams similar to (but not interchangable with) the top-RF Speed/Crown.
The chassis is cast metal, like a Linhof, rather than composite (wood/metal). The Super Graphic is more compact than the Pacemaker.
There is an electric powered body release for the shutter and a flash guide number calculator coupled to the rangefinder. The rear focal plane shutter has been discontinued.
The back revolves 360 degrees.
The front standards has a full range of rise, shifts, tilts and swings, an improvement over the Pacemaker series:
Tilt Backward/Forward | +/-15 deg |
Swing | +/-25 deg |
Shift | L/R 1/2" |
Rise | 1 1/8" |
Drop bed | 15 deg |
Bellows Extension | 12 1/2" |
Flexibility of all movements permits adjustment for composition
and dpth of field. Front lens standard tilts forward and
back, swings right and left, and shifts right and left. |
Shutter and flash may be tripped electrically from button
conveniently located on top left side of camera. |

Interchangeable cams match lens to integral rangefinder,
focusing scale and flash exposure calculator. |
Automaic focusing scale located conveniently on top of
