I wonder if anyone has experience using lens hoods with the Schneider SA47XL on 4x5 and 6x9.
I've just purchased my first LF camera - a Cambo Wide DS and the 47mm lens. I'm using it with Schneider's center filter - with a front thread of 86mm. I really need a lens hood for this, since I've already experienced some flare and reflect ions from out of frame lights.
I was hoping to use a Lee wide angle hood/singe filter holder with a wide angle 86mm adapter. Has anyone tried this on the above combination? Does it vignette? Any other hints/tips?
I'm also considering using the camea with a 6x9 back and the Cambo viewfinder. I n this configuration I would remove the ground glass, and rely on the helical to focus. Any tips on pre-setting filter hood extension to avoid vignessing proble ms? The hood I'm considering has no lock or measuring scale.
Thanks!
