I suspect this lens (100mm f3.5 Schneider-Kreuznach Zenar) was for a "press camera" therefore would have limited movements. A search didn't yield the results for me. Can anyone tell me what the image circle might be. I would use it on a 4x5 field camera.
Thanks

If you search the Schneider site for Xenar, 3,5/100 you'll have better luck. Here's the pdf for that lens:

117mm image circle at f/22 ("field diameter"), it was designed for 6x9cm cameras.
