Can I use a Linhof lens on a Gaoersi 6X17?

[Mnettsman]

Hi,

I am new to large format cameras and want to start out with a Gaoersi. It is new and cost effective. I found some new, surpluss, Linhof Schneider Kreuznach Super Angulon 90mm Lens. Will this work on the Gaoersi??

Thanks!

Welcome Michael.

Of course you can, but just check with Gaoersi though first, I can't remember whether I had my 90mm f5.6 SA or 90mm f6.8 Grandagon on a Goaresi cone now. The 90mm cone's in Turkey so I can't check the fit now. I use a 75m all the yime now.

There's three 90mm SA's the f5.6, f8 and now f6.8 Classic (and some variations) and it's the sixe of the rear cell taht matters. Gaoersi are very helpful when you contact them

My Linhof Technorama 617 has the very lens that you mention on it.

Absolutely. As long as the lensboard is compatible, you can use it on damn near any camera.
