Poll: Longest Focal Length You Own (4x5)

[Ron Marshall]

Might as well ask this as well. If your FL is not represented, pick the nearest one.

This is intended for 4x5.

My longest is 450mm.

[David A. Goldfarb]

I said 360, because that's the longest I typically use on 4x5", but I have a few longer lenses that I could use on my 8x10" Sinar P with a 4x5" back, but I've only done so out of curiosity, to see what they look like. Here's a shot with that setup and a 75cm element from my Busch Vademecum set--

This involved two tripods, which isn't something I care to do that often.

My longest LF lens is the convertible Symmar 1:5.6/360 - 1:12/620mm. But I've voted with the whole lens only. ;-)

That I use in 4x5:
360 mm Apo Ronnar f9
360 mm Tessar f6,3

[hoffner]

Mine is 800mm Nikon - far from the longest allowed to vote for.

[Walter Calahan]

500 Fujinon, but if I had extension bellows and third standard for my 4x5 Arca-Swiss, I'd love to mount my Nikkor 1200 mm that I use on my 8x10 system.

Fuji 600-T, 450-C

[eddie]

i got an old 19 in brass lens i use on my korona view.

[Sandeha]

Damn ... I am so completely negated with numbers I'm surprised I'm still shooting. I voted 360 when my longest is actually 460. Oops.

[Steve Barber]

45cm Artar and 600mm Fujinon T

[Jan Pedersen]

300mm Apo Ronar cause that is the limit of the Shen-Hao's bellows. Have longer lenses but 300 is all i need on 4x5

[Richard M. Coda]

Fuji 450C

[Dave_B]

720mm in a strictly 4x5 format (Nikkor 720 Tele) and 1200 mm in an 8x10 format (Nikkor 1200 Tele). A 720 Tele is about the limit for my Ebony 4x5 in terms of bellows extension.

[Alan Davenport]

None of the above. I voted for 250, but my longest lens is a true ten inch: 254mm. One day, I'll seek out a 400mm tele...

[Andrew O'Neill]

600mm for both 4x5 and 8x10.

[Rodney Polden]

I'm with you, Andrew - 600mm for both 4x5 and 8x10. Cheers from Salt Spring.

[Brian K]

720mm, 500mm, 360mm nikkor T-ED,
480 Apo Ronar
500mm Osaka

[George Stewart]

500mm Osaka.

[tgtaylor]

300mm Nikkor-M. Tack sharp.

[roteague]

210 is all I've found a need for.

[SAShruby]

Where is 600mm range? :D

[Armin Seeholzer]

My 610 APO Nikkor is not on the list, but most of the time I use it in 8x10 not so often in 4x5 and 6x7.

Cheers Armin Seeholzer

[Skorzen]

15" Tele-raptar... 381mm so I said 400 cause it is one closer to that than 360.
