After a lag in shooting 4x5, I have just purchased a Shen-Hao 4x5 and it has got me motivated again. I need to pick up about 5 lensboards.. where is the cheapest source for linhof-style lensboards that will fit on my Shen-Hao? (ebay seems to be running about $30 each)

Do you care what the hole size(s) are?

Similar boards were easier to make out of flat aluminum for my Anba Ikeda than for almost any other camera.

I've bought a few Chinese-made boards when I couldn't find them here or elsewhere.
For flat boards, I pay $19 shipped, for recessed, $26 shipped (I think).
On eBay, look for seller ID jinfinance.

Ah came up with another quetsion..
Does the Shen-Hao take boards with the hole in the center or offset?

Two of the boards that I bought from JDFinance were marked Shen-Hao.

I've got a homemade aluminum board to fit a 121/8 Super Angulon that I can't use (I use Sinar and Canham boards).
I will gladly ship this to you for the cost of postage. Send me a PM or email if interested.
