Greetings from South/West Australia

I'd still like 65-75mm in terms of the FOV it achieves but I'm getting the impression that there are a number of technical issues with going that wide (centre filters, bag bellows, etc) that will make it hard. Might have to start with 90mm.

Let me know if you're heading to Melb and I can show you some different lenses in situ.

Or, if I'm heading to Adelaide with work, I can let you know and bring some kit...

Well, I finally got to take a shot and this week, I got my scanner back. I don't have the other neg shot at the same time but with tilt and therefore (theoretically) a focused horizon unlike this one. It was with a borrowed camera (thankyou Ervin); I still haven't got my own yet as other things are making demands on my finances and time

Hi and welcombe to another Ozie,
I have a Tachihara 4x5 and I use a 65mm nikkor and am able to get a small amount of front rise and tilt, I love this little lens and is my Favorite one, its mounted on a recessed lens board,the Tachihara is a great camera as well,
hope that helps & good luck
Cheers Brian
