    ebony..which lens panels?

    a really simple question here..but one I can't find definitve answer to!

    What lens panels can an ebony (SW45) take?

    Is it linhof, wista and ebony?

    or also toyo etc.

    Thanks.

    I the 45su and it takes the nikon lens boards, I would guess the sw would be the same. I am not sure what the nikon board is comparable to though...

    All 3. save yourself some money and you could get lensboard at Adorama for 34.00
    they are designated Wista, Linhof,tachihara I use them for my Ebony 4x5Ti
    Br

    I might add that they do not take toyo boards.

    The Ebony 4x5 cameras use Linhof Technika-sized lens boards, which are also compatible with Wista and a variety of other cameras. New generic versions of these boards are available from many sources (including Badger Graphic, Midwest Photo Exchange, etc.) for around $30-$35 USD.

    As above...actually all 3 of mine are Wista boards (for my 45s non-folder).

    Midwest is great and usually has them on their eBay store for quick purchase.

    Yes, 96x99mm is the correct size. For example, see:
