About
The Graphic Ringside Camera is a specialist camera for sports (especially boxing) photographers, made to special order by Folmer Graflex in the 1930s. It is rigid-bodied (that is, it has no bellows, and does not fold), and has only the focal-plane shutter. It has a focusing screen at the rear, and focusing is by a helical ring on the lens. There is also a 'sports-finder'. It is essentially a latter-day Ermanox, but for 4x5-inch film in double dark-slides.
