Lens Question ?????????????????

[EZzing]

Not Really a large format, but a sheet film camera.

I am waiting for delivery of a miniature speedgraphic that takes 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 sheet film. It doesn't have a lens though.

Can anyone recommend sizes that will be suitable???????



Thanks

Bill

Somewhere around 100mm was "standard" on these little guys. I've seen 101mm f4.5 and 103mm f4.5. It is going to have to be in a small shutter because of lens board size.

Anything around 100mm (4") should be a starting point. For their cost, two outstanding choices might be a Kodak Ektar f:3.8/105mm, or a 100mm Schneider Symmar-S.

I have a 65 mm Schneider Angulon on mine that is great for "street" photography.

Thanks for the advice.

One more question???

With focal plane shutter, can I rely on barrel lenses?

Thanks
