    Bag bellows and recessed lensboard

    Hi,

    I'm new to LF and I am getting a 90mm lens for my Cambo SC. Do I need both the recessed lensboard and the bag bellows for this length or just the bag bellows?

    Thanks

    I use a Cambo SC some of the time, and you will want the bag bellows. The normal bellows wont permit alot of movement with short lenses. I dont think you need a recessed lensboard, mine works fine with out it with a 90mm.

    Hope it helps.

    Do you flip the rear standard around to move the ground glass closer?

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I dont flip the standard works perfectly fine in the normal position.

    Hope it helps.
