Hi, Everybody!
New poster here, been lurking for a while.
Hopefully, someone can help me out...
I recently acquired a fairly clean 7" Hugo Meyer 7" Trioplan f 4.5, Gorlitz & New York, in black barrel.
It had been awkwardly front mounted on a large-ish Alphax shutter,
but I am considering having it mounted in shutter.
I have searched here and elsewhere for info on this lens,
and there is lots out there, but I find nothing on this focal length.
Any idea of coverage? I'm hoping it covers 4x5", covering 5x7 would be a big bonus.
I discovered that Trioplans are the "hip" lens to have now, apparently...
By way of introduction, I am restoring an Eastman 33a, and also have a 5x7 Conley, and a B&J Press 4x5.
Thanks,
Dugan
