I used to have a 75 for 4x5. I found I wasn't using it much at all, so I offloaded it. I still have a 90, which I on rare occasion also use with 5x7. For 8x10/5x12, I have a 159.

This looks like a 4x5 poll. I shoot 2x3. So much the worse for me.
My shortest lens, which doesn't cover 2x3, is a 38. The shortest I own that covers is a 47.
90mm for 4x5 and 5x7
120mm for 8x10
No need for anything wider
Yup, with the fan. I need to get out with it more, but I've been going in other directions lately...Originally Posted by Ron Marshall

Hey Capocheny, won't your 110XL also cover 8x10?

Would you mind posting something taken with that on 8x10? I'm very curious to see the perspective.
With apologies for hogging the thread (and the usual crappy scans), four uncropped 8x10 images of the same little spot in the woods with different focal lengths. I moved around some for each, otherwise it would have just been an exercise in camera cropping. I wanted to see how each caught the same space, and situated the camera accordingly...

Don't apologize, it is an interesting comparison.
Thanks Mark, that is amazingly wide. A bit of light fall-off in the corners but not objectionable.
