As expected it doesn't even come close to covering 4x5 at infinity. Thanks for explaining how to do that Bob.
What it does seem to be excellent for is macro stuff - as long as the subject is...

Good points - both of them.
How would I go about checking coverage @ infinity?
Normally, if the lens was mounted in a shutter, I'd take it upstairs and point it out of the second story window...
...figured what the hell and mocked up a lensboard, bolted this thing to it and fired off a couple of sheets at a tulip that I got my wife for Mother's Day.

Hi,
I'm sure hoping that someone has seen this lens before - and can tell me if'n it's suitable for mounting in a shutter and for use on a 4x5 camera.
The research I've done indicates...
Nothing exciting - HP5+ film speed test shots.
(Still, they fit here.)
It's fun to take pictures of stuff I see a thousand times a day - just to see what a picture of it looks like...
...
Not at all - not at all.
I'm only a couple of years into my darkroom experience and most of it (99.8%) has been self-taught. This is not a good thing, as you can imagine.
...and I hadn't...
LoL.
Thanks for the input. Looks like I'll be using it for a paperweight here in the very near future.

The other two are indeed unmarked - very possibly homemade.
(I picked up this enlarger via a guy on the local Craigslist a couple of years ago - it came with a number of lenses and all those lens...
This may sound like a strange question but: how do you know the model number of these enlargers? (I looked everywhere on this thing and couldn't find it stamped or otherwise embossed on it...)
All...
I have.
What's weird is this: in order to get it to focus semi-correctly (and with the head almost at the top of the column) I have to take the disc that rides on the focusing rail off of the rail...
Hi,
Did a bunch of googling and searching here on the forums - all to no avail. I'm trying like hell to mount a 162mm Wollensak Raptar onto a D5 (and get it to focus when using a 4x5 neg).

Two pictures from the base of Chittenango Falls - one looking toward the falls, one looking away.
These two are from my first 'outing' with my Horseman L. Heavy, but worth the hassle.

My second attempt at this LF stuff.

Certainly nowhere near the caliber of most of the pictures in this thread... but it was the very first time that my 4x5 was used in anger.
(...and 45 minutes to make two pictures? LoL. I used to...
