I have an f8/90 Super Angulon that i want to use on my 4x5 Crown as well as experimenting on my 2D 5x7. It seems that the easiest thing to do is leave the lens on the Crown G. metal lensboard, then make a recessed lensboard for the 2D with magnets in the back to easily attach and detach the metal-mounted S.A.
After further thought this seems like a recipe for disaster. Has anyone had experience with inadvertently magnetizing a shutter? Do you think this problem could be averted by making a wood lensboard for the CG and then using the magnets in the adapted mount for the 5x7?
