What size Copal for these lenses?

[sanking]

Can someone tell me what size Copal shutter I would need for the following lenses.

1. Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar 5.6/240/12/420.

2. Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar - S 5.6/180.

3. SW-Prinz 4.5/135.

4. Schneider-Kreusnach Technika Super-Angulon 8/90.


I am assuming #1 for 2 and #0 for 4, but no idea about the other two.

Sandy, have you looked here http://www.schneiderkreuznach.com/archiv/archiv.htm yet?

The Schneider lenses where mounted in different shutter sizes, so you should measure the threads of the lenses than you can see if one of the Copal shutter fits. E. g. the Super-Angulon 8/90 was deliverd with shutter size #00, #0 and #1.

Originally a Compur #2 for the 240mm Symmar, sometimes remounted in Copal 3s.

The 180mm Symmar-S is in a #1.

The 90/8 SA is most likely in a Compur #00, but might be in a #0.

The Prinz is most likely in a #1, but might be in a #0, or even a #01. A 135mm lens in a #0 shutter would in most cases be no faster than f:4.7.


to find the thread diameters for #2 shutters, follow the link in my signature and then "view entire thread". It's a couple of posts furter down.

Just a note of clarification. I am not trying to put these lenses in Copal shutters, but trying to figure out what size opening in the lens board is needed. I apologize for not being more clear in my question.

Basically, I am selling a gentlemen a Canham camera, and would like to include a few Canham lens boards, with openings for Copal #0, #1 and #3, that will fit his lenses, which are the ones listed.

I have one of these lenses in a Compur #2 but have also seen them in a Copal #3 shutter.
