    Re: 4x5 Graflex Super D + 18/21cm heliars

    Have tried a 210mm f3.5 Meyer Trioplan and that works. Also a 7-1/2" Verito (sunken mount) and that works.

    Re: 11.5" Verito in a different shutter?

    I use a Luc shutter front mounted to a 11.5" Verito. Don't remember the size but probably a S6 or S7. You get a 15th to a 25th speed by how hard you press the shutter release and anything slower than...

    There is a guy from Ukraine who sells print and film washers on ebay. His moniker is "underredlight". I haven't bought from him but I am tempted to by a film washer from him.

    For larger lenses, LUC shutters are nice. But the larger sizes are getting harder to source and sell for allot. It would be great if they could be manufactured again.228184

    Re: Hoffman MetalMaster

    Larry,

    When you push the rod in fully, it tightens the rails against the film and prevents film movement. Sometimes the rods stick and are difficult to fully seat.
