I'm glad to announce that the adapters to mount Fujinon SF 420mm f/5.6 lenses in Shanel 5A shutters are now ready. I have an initial batch for sale. These adapters are machined out of aluminum and then anodized.
The maximum aperture of the lens is reduced by 2/3 stop to approximately f/7. I think this is a reasonable compromise for the luxury of having a proper shutter to use this wonderful and uncommon lens.

The adapter is priced at 14,400 JPY / ~100 USD, plus shipping via my choice of JapanPost EMS or UPS.
Thanks for looking,
