Where oh where does one find the so called Sinar Code # on DB lens mounts.
I purchased a DB mount from a person who advised me that it was the correct one for a Super Angulon lens. And when I installed the cells on the board they fit just fine. However, I now find out that because its a 121 mm lens (longer) it will not fit into the Sinar Shutter (no matter how hard I tried to beat it in there). So I need to find a different DB board.
Looking at this one carefully with a magnifying glass I cannot seem to find its code. There are a few numbers to be sure, but not the so called code number that resembles the code that I need for my lens, which I am told is 440-99-018. There are no numbers on this DB board that even remotely resemble that kind of number, and I assume that it would be just a digit or two off for the same lens in 90 mm.
So again, where are these code numbers on these DB lensboards?
