    Re: 210, 240 or 300mm?

    Fujinon 240mm A. For all the reasons previously written about this amazing lens, plus the additional bellow draw if you do want to get closer.

    The suggestion on APUG was to give the Suppliers a couple of days to get their prices onto their systems, so don't worry if there's nothing showing on their sites until early next week.

    Why then, do you (as an Organisation), have a rule that For Sale postings don't count? You obviously put some weight on them.

    Re: 11x14 or 8x10 Field Camera

    Why not shoot on 8x10 and get digital negs done. This way, you'll be able to get the size that you want AND print wet.

    Given you have the V750 already, this would be a cheap option.
