Does Horseman 75/5.6 Professional lens cover 4x5. Anyone know?

The image circle at f/22 being only 120mm, I guess the answer has to be "no".

I DO use the 75mm on my 4x5 but only for the vignetting effect. Very pronounced with that size image circle. Cool wide-angle image, though. Of the "Super" lenses, the 120 has the sharpest corners when used for 4x5. Some of the other "Supers" have a big enough 'light' circle for 4x5 but loose some sharpness at the corners.
