Hi folks,
I was wondering if anyone could assist with what is probably a rather dumb question. I recently acquired a Plaubel 4x5 with 4 lenses. Three are Rodenstocks but one is a Mamiya RB lens that fits onto a specially made baseplate. The shutter will fire independently of the Mamiya body but i have to take the lens off each time to cock it, but when it fires it’s actually open, then closes as you fire it then fires your selected speed. Whats going on here? Won’t i get normal operation without the body? My question is: what will coverage on a lens like this be? Will i have to use a 6x7 rollfilm back?
Sincerely
Tim
