Ok, here is the Graflex open, it looks like the bellows is in good shape. Can anyone tell me how to know what the two lens are for...Doh I mean wide angle vs telephoto? As you can tell I have no clue about any of this.

I can't quite make out the numbers in the photos....but, on a 4x5 camera the 150mm focal length is usually considered "normal". Longer than that is telephoto, shorter is wide angle........Bob

Thanks Bob, I did find on the link Eric Rose posted that the big lens is 150mm approx. I will check and see what the other two are.
