I have a 210mm that just misses covering 11x14 (by about 1/2" in each corner). I also have 240mm and 305mm Repromasters that I plan to try on my 11x14 Seneca view camera. I'm sure they'll both cover. I've tried the 150mm on my 8x10 Century Universal. I have a Graflex 8x10 focal plane shutter unit on the back of the Century, and it added enough thickness that I couldn't get the 150mm to focus. I didn't try removing the focal plane shutter unit. Similarly, I tried the 150mm on my 8x10 Elwood. It wouldn't focus because the bellows wouldn't collapse enough. I wasn't ambitious enough to make a counter-sunk lensboard for it.
