I recently purchased an Ebony SV45Ti that I was having some regrets about. This past weekend I was able to take the camera out for a real test run in the Eastern Sierras/Mono Lake/Red Rock Canyon and the camera is feeling a lot better to use and getting to be a bit more natural but still not as comfortable as my 23S was. At any rate, I found that while using my Fujinon 90SW that the bellows seemed to limit out when I tried using a reasonable amount of rise. I was under the impression that the SV's bellows could handle anything that a 90 could throw at it, but just not any wider lenses. Do I need to pick up a universal bellows to get comfortable movements with a 90? I also have a Nikkor 65SW and am assuming that I can't do much as far as movements with the standard bellows.
Also, I was wondering if a Super Symmar 80XL would require the front standard to be adjusted to focus to infinity. By "adjusted" I mean, would it require a base tilt and axis tilt to bring the front standard back closer to the film. I'm thinking of selling the Nikkor 65SW and Fujinon 90SW f/8 to pick up the 80XL.
Thanks for the advice!
