Id like to get a recessed board for my MPP mk7, in order to make my lens fold into the camera. I have not been able to find any pictures of such a board, nor any references to any recessed MPPmk7 boards ever being sold. There is plenty of information about the cone/top-hat boards, but those go in the wrong direction :)

So has anyone ever heard about recessed boards for the MPP mk7?

engl,
There is an MPP users club over here and they have a website. You might be able to obtain a drawing or picture. It's only peanuts to join and I'd recommend it to any MPP owners.

Hi engl, I agree with Pete.
However, from my memory of the back issues of 'THE GAZ' MPP did not make one.

Thank you, I will look into joining that club. Are they still active?

About the lens board, in case MPP did indeed not make one, are there any places in Europe from which custom recessed lensboards can be ordered? I believe SK Grimes can do that sort of thing in the US, but shipping costs + VAT would probably make it very expensive.
