Hi everyone, I dont post much on here but would appreciate any help to this question.
I have a Wista VX which I love to use for macro work, even though I know its intended use is field work. I have a single lens for it which is the Nikkor 120mm macro which is what fills my needs and expectations. Im looking to use the lens with my nikon DSLR just for different uses and because I'm more curious of how it will render on digital than anything else. I have seen the 4x5 plates with nikon mounts but i cant seem to figure out how if at all the Wista Field cameras allow to take off the graflok back and just mount the plate directly on there.
Some of you I'm sure have solved this issue already or will recommend bellows with a custom mount solution for the lens, I have also considered that but would like some tilt/shift action which other than the mamiya bellows (expensive) I cant seem to find anything else other than buying a studio 4x5 camera. which I rather not do.
Thoughts, Ideas, encouragement, would be appreciated.
