I have a Meridian 45B (front standard opening of 75mm), and am trying to determine what modern well-corrected optics will fit and still allow the camera to close.
Haven't found any dimensions for the Nikkor SW 90 on the web. Does anyone have one that can take a few quick measurements (i.e. rear cell diameter, rear flange to element distance, front element to board distance). Thanks in advance for saving me the grief of buying one sight unseen.
Having test fit one, I'm fairly confident that I can get the previous version of the Schneider APO-Symmar 210mm f/5.6 to fit and the 45B to close, provided I make a skinny board. However looking at the most recent data from the Schneider paged I see that in the latest L version they spec the OD of the rear cell to 80mm.
