270mm is nice.
I heard thru a dealer that one of his customers had some issues w/that 20K cam that took forever to fix..
Something about a defective part..
I'm not sure why anyone would want it..
1 drop or...
Any ideas guys on how to configure an aperture for this lens? Or any leads on Godzilla's shutter..lol..

Thx for the great info guys!
I've decided to buy the lens..probably am paying a bit too much for it..
But I know the guy selling it from long ago..and its local..so all the ducks are in a row for...
How would you guys say the LF Soft Focus lens market is these day..for buyers..and sellers?
Has it gone up over the past 5 years (good for sellers)..or a buyers market at the moment w/drop in...
Hi Bob,
A question about the last 2 most recent versions of Linhof multifocus optical finders for 2x3 and 4x5.
1.Are all the glass elements the same in all format versions?..just with the printed...
Hi Bob,
Was there ever a back lens cover for the 65mm & 135mm 6x12 Technorama lenses? Something to cover the camera end of the metal cone when not in use.
Thx,

Thx Bob!!
Hi Bob,
Will the Schneider 135mm APO-SYMMAR MC for Linhof Technorama 612 fit the 1st version body too?
Thx!

Hi Bob,
The bubble/level part of the viewfinder on my Linhof 6x12 PC ver 1 has dried out..
Is there a replacement part for this available?
Maybe the entire clear plastic part..or just the bubble...

Hi Bob,
Can you tell me if the this Linhof Technorama 612 PC Super-Angulon 5.6/65mm
serial #9751085 is a type 1 or 11. And if it takes the 58mm lens?
And year of construction.
thanks much!

Probably my Computar 270mm would be the one I would be ok with forever on 7x17...as a 1 and only lens..
Glad I got my Ebony 8x10 a couple of years ago..
Jim at Midwest gave me a good deal on a new one..
imo..7x17 is the sweet spot for me..ULF..at 8x10 weight..
But M&P's 18x22 contacts..are really something to behold..
I have a 16x20..but haven't used that beast much..yet..
Leica Noctilux f1.0 and pre asph summilux 35 1.4 are good..as well as trashed out Summars and old cine lenses..wide open..
Great thread! Re-inspired me..! To dust off the old stuff..those..Dallmeyers...
I heard the N was sharper..just with less coverage..I have a 300 N..and its really really beautiful..
Thanks for that!
My fave lens on 7x17 is the 270mm Computar...just magic on that format..240 Computar is a bit too wide for my needs..verticals are no problem with the Ries..and if you want more stability..just bring...
Still have to get a 16x20 contact printer..or a nice clean 18x22 piece of glass...starting to get the bug again..after 7 years off..
Jeeze...didn't know so many people were still into ULF...nice to see!
I haven't don't anything but digital for awhile now...years..
Thinking about dusting off the Wisner ULF's sitting in the closet...
Hi Bob..I'm thinking about mounting my Linhof finder to the top of my 8x10..does Linhof sell the part that it mounts to separately..?
Thanks, E..
Just twist it a lil bit...until it matches the GG..for whatever lens you are using...
How about S&S filmholders...
I am sorry for your experience, Thx bro...
but I was convinced by the build quality of two different Ebony models I handled myself. Way ahead of what was presented to me by Shen Hao, Chamonix or...
I would order thru a distributor w/Visa/MC if I were you..just in case there is something wrong with it...Jim at Midwest is a great guy..
And yes..I ordered a 5K Ebony cam from Midwest in 2013..3...
I've shot razer sharp at 1/4 sec...in low fading light handheld..w/127mm...not focal plane..
They have pretty big coverage as well..I just threw the 180 SF on my 8x10..and it looks like it covers..haven't tried it yet..probably soft corners stopped all the way down..but for artsy stuff..will...
Still have yet to take this one out...

If you want to know more about where MW was coming from..read Gurdjieff and Ouspensky..
He really was... a very unusual and mystical person..
I have the same Rittreck 6x10 outfit..
Been out of photography for awhile now..
Maybe take it for a spin soon..
Nice cam..!
I just bought the ultralight model Ebony SLW8x10..simple and easy to set up..
I think the titanium is the best reason for the Ebony camera..
This one is smooth as hell..
I like my Dorff too...but...
Some people are good in business ...some of the time ...and bad in business...at other times...
Those are the ones you really have to be wary of..
There are good people in business...and bad...
Enough said...
I too got tired of my Dorff..
I just got this one in...7.5lbs...
