PH-47
-E Shown in 1945, as a 4x5 Anniversary model, with an anastigmat 127mm f4.7 Ektar or Velostigmat in a No. 2 Supermatic shutter. Equipped with either a Kalart or Hugo Meyer rangefinder. (TM 11- 487F)
-F Shown in 1945, as a 4x5 Anniversary model with an Ilex Paragon series S anastigmat 5½-inch lens in No. 3 Acme synchronized shutter. Equipped with either a Kalart or Hugo Meyer rangefinder. (TM 11-487F & TM 11-2352)
-G Probably was not produced.
-H Shown in 1950, as an OD 4x5 Pacemaker Speed Graphic with a coated 127mm 4.7 Ektar lens in a No. 2 Supermatic shutter, but with a pre-focus button and a body shutter release. Kalart or Hugo Meyer rangefinder. It had the standard Graphic back. See KE-12(1) for a description of the military version of this camera.
-J Serial number 856,229 is an OD Pacemaker Speed Graphic with a body release and a Graflok back with slide locks. A later number (891,861)(though possibly not tagged as a J) remained OD, but there was no body release, although it had a Graflok back, but the slide locks were gone. A “J” has even been found without the OD finish but with a side release. Go figure! Identification tags on some Pacemaker cameras suggest that they were purchased under an Air Force contract for the Signal Corps.
- PH-104 is the camera set including the above listed cameras. Also, there is evidence that the Super-D could have been in this outfit.
