Deardorff adapter lens board for Linhof format

[Hirotaka Kasuga]

Recently, I was able to obtain a Deardorff 8x10 camera, and I am now looking for its lens. Since I have a Tachihara 4x5 which accepts Linhof lens board, I want to use one of the lens for Tachihara (Nikkor M300) for Deardorff in common. I would appreciate it if someone can inform me where I can get the adapter lens bo ard for Deardorff so that I can mount all the subsequent 8x10 lens on Linhof boa rd to make them common between 4x5 and 8x10.

There is also Gary Hurst, ghurst@uswest.net Both he and his brother are master machinists & photographers. Gary did just what you are asking for for me with my 8x10 and 5x7 Deardorffs so I can use the technica boards on both. A first class job on both boards, as well as a nice job adding front swing to the 5x7 Deardorff.
