I vaguely recall measuring 42mm (?) for a smooth push-on stubby
'barrel' on the front of this lens. There are no threads in front.
Any idea what was available to mount filters on these lenses? A
swing-arm?

To turn the tables, I'd like to point out the fantastic service I got from
Badger Graphic.  After pointing out a very minor cosmetic flaw in my Shen
Hao, Jeff asked no questions and said he would replace the part.  I sent
him the part and got a replacement within 5 days from me ...

I've just suggested the following to a friend; would appreciate folks in the
know here to check it over for concerns.  Thanks.
...  I have bench test data on a 16.5" Goerz Artar (#761897) that may help
you.  It suggests that your 210mm Agfa Helioprint process lens may be best

I was wondering what kind of constructions people use to attach a lens
shade to the camera or the tripod. I've got a wooden tachihara. I

lens would be on a slightly recessed Durst  lens board? TIA

First off, my equipement:
Rodenstock 210 (67 filter)
Schneider 110 (52 _rear_ filter)
I'm looking for some ideas for adding some dramatic skies. I've shot

OK, anyone have a swag at how many
4x5" and/or 8x10" view cameras are in
active service, in the USA and the
rest of the "developed world?"

Hi everybody, have been lurking for a few months now and have gathered quite
a bit of good info. But I now need some help. I have just received a Sinar
F2 and Broncolor FCM meter and would like to get operating instruction
manuals for both. Free is preferable. Maybe some site ...

Does the curtain shutter on the Speed Graphic move horizontally or
vertically?  In other words a 4" travel or a 5" travel?
Thanks

I know there are some folks who will howl about 'why bother' or worse.
Whatever... Most of you are busy shooting film, so don't waste your
time griping about this. I posted this in the hopes it will be of use,
