I have an opportunity to get a Toyo AII at a good price, but I have some lenses in Technika recessed boards. I'm wondering if those would fit into the Toyo adapter board, or if you can only mount flat Technika boards into it. The AII would be a nice-to-have, smaller second camera.

On the other hand for not much more it seems like I could get a Chamonix or something and not need any adapters. The Toyo is more my kind of camera though.

Thanks

My Canham 5x7 uses the 110mm lensboards and I'm using a Toyo adapter. I have no trouble using a recessed board in that adapter. It's tight and adjusting shutter speed and aperture are challenging...but if I can do it with my fat fingers, I'm thinking most people should.

Thanks for the feedback on this. Seems like it should work.
