I've decided to have Bill prepare/send a Hi-Lux screen for my 4x5 Master
Tech-  I don't care much for that hard to focus/grainy- a.s Beattie screen.
Any one have Bill Maxwells' E-Mail contact info?
Thanks,

Several Months ago I purchased a few boxes of Fuji Neopan Acros
in 4x5 from Fred Newman's View Camera Store in Arizona.  It was
obviously direct imported from Japan as most of the writing on the
package was Japanese.

Is it ever practical these days to rebuild
lenses?  I'm not talking about the shutter,
but about separating and then re-cementing
elements within groups, or maybe re-coating?

what orientation have the sheet film reported to projected image on holder?
I know that the heel must up be to right, but do not know reported to what.
Thanks, Massimiliano.

There has been so much BS about pyro posted all over the net and in some
magazines that View Camera and CamraArts have posted a rational and considered
essay on its health aspects. The article is in the Free Article section of both
web sites

I guess this might be a question for Richard...
I have both the front and rear cell for a 7" goerz double-anastigmat
(seriesIII no.2)....i dont have the barrel for it..just the cells. the lens
threads are 45mm, any ideas on what kind of shutter i might look out for to

I've poked around on the web some but have been unable to find any
information about the coverage of this lens.  It's not mentioned in the
various versions of Michael Gudzinowicz's table, which seem to
be the most comprehensive listings.  The lens is in a Copal 3S.

If you wanted to try some quality digital cameras, now may be the time -

I'm Italian; excuseme for my bad english.
I'm a new user of large format.
Can I adapt a Kodak 127 from my Graflex 3x4 on my Graflex view 4x5?
The circle of image is sufficient for the movements of camera?

I've a couple of lenses that I can't find coverage informatin about.

I obtained this flash bulb holder in a box of photo items for a Graflex and
need some info. What size battery does this unit take. The case is about the
size of a 'D' cell but the inner case is only half that size like a D cell
split down the length end to end. There was also no ...

I have some septums that I initially took to be for a 4x5 Grafmatic. However
they won't cycle in a Grafmatic holder (the dark slide won't go back in
under the first septum - it jams against it), and on closer inspection I see
they are a bit thinner. A stack of 7 of these is a tad ...

The official Schneider quote for the image circle is around 180mm at
infinity and f22.
It said by some this is a conservative figure.
Also how good would the lens be at apertures wider than f22 around infinity?

There's a good chance this Fall that I'm going to have a free weekend
by myself to out shooting. So I'll make it a 3- or 4-day weekend, and
would like to go to E. Tennessee. Maybe Va/WVa/whatever roads I want
to take. Time for some 4x5 & maybe 8x10.
