Hi.
I have a Calumet Cambo. I think it's an SC.

What kind of lens boards are compatible with this camera?

Reason I ask is, now that I know I'm looking for a 90mm, some of these as you know come with attached lens boards. It would be nice to get the right fit. I'm pretty sure the 90mm is a #0. I don't have any extra #0's.

Thx!

Cambo. If you buy a lens on a foul alien unclean board, you'll have to buy a Cambo board, appropriately bored, for it. Used boards that fit the SC-2, SF, Legend, ... are abundant and not that expensive.

If you have many lenses on the same other board, skgrimes can probably make an adapter (Cambo board plus something) that will let you use the lenses on y'r SC. When I was given an SC-1 (2x3 SC) I used 2x3 Pacemaker Graphics, had way too many lenses on 2x3 Pacemaker Graphic boards. SKG made the adapter I needed, I still have way too many lenses on 2x3 Graphic boards, all usable on my little Cambo.
