Folks,
Have just taken the plunge and got a Wista VX plus 90 & 150 Super Angulons but a m looking for a longer lens too. Wista claim the VX can accomodate lenses up to 300mm but I was thinking about going for a telephoto design like the Nikon 360/8 which only needs 261mm of bellows draw. My question is, are there any disadvantages to these telephotos? How do they rat e optically compared with normal designs?
Finally, what about the converter units (ie interchangeable rear elements) - do these degrade the image much? Seems almost too good to be true that one could ha ve a 360 and a 500 in only one and a half lenses and still be able to focus on i nfinity at 261mm...
(Finally thanks to all for the inumerable old posts on this BB which made the br eak into LF so much easier)
