I have been using Sinar F2 4x5 for a long time with wide angle lenses and bag bellows to photograph architecture. I am no wiz technically and consider myself an intuitive worker.
Now, I am using more normal and slightly telephoto lenses (150 and 210mmm) and when I tilt the camera to about 45 degrees and then try to bring the front and rear standards into parallel at 90 degrees to correct the perspective, the compaction of the standard bellows makes tilting the rear standard to 90 degrees quite difficult. The camera is stressed and rear shift becomes unavailable.
So what to do? Should I take an 8x10 bag bellows and somehow adapt it to 4x5?
Has anyone solved this problem? I hope I am describing my issue adequately.
Thanks in advance.
