Hello: I recently acquired an Agfa Ventura 69 (6x9 format). No light leaks, at least with 125 speed film and a flashlight inside it.Lens/shutter have been CLA'ed. <snip> Murray, I like to use the shutters from these old folders, especially if they have a B(ulb) or T(ime) setting. It's much easier to just remove the lenses & replace them with a piece of brass shim with a pinhole drilled into it. I can send you pics of a couple I've converted, if you'd like. The upside is you can always put the lenses back in & give the camera to someone who wants a medium-format with a traditional lens.
