I recently bought a 4x5 Sinar p2, and have a couple of lenses I was unable to mount on my other cameras - either because of their weight or size. The largest one is a barrel type Zeiss APO Germinar W 240mm f8 (like this one: http://album.foto.ru/photos/pr0/46537/2339261.jpg ). So it's back threaded instead of being center mounted, and kind of heavy: 3.5 kg or so. Do you think a normal P2 front standard is sturdy enough to handle that?
Thanks!
