Hi everybody,
It is so beauty to get it, but I want to have a combo 5x7 or 8x10 set included, that who know about it please give me some recommendation.
Will the conversion 5x7/8x10 (any linhof series) kit fit on LKC 45s front back?
I can use extension rail for it?
Regards,
Truong
Sorry Truong, the Kardan Color 45 resp. Kardan Color 45s where the budget-price beginner models. As I know the Kardan-Color 45s was only aviable in 4x5". The standards aren't interchangable with other models like the Kardan B. Also there where no extension rails aviable for this models.

Bi and S have same rail's diameter, adapter board?
Thank you.
Truong
I meant... I can use front S with rear Bi? :)
Thanks
Truong

The rail is nearly the same, but without registration grooves, screw and nut for mounting extention rails. Also the endstops are glued to the rail for the Kardan Color 45.Quote:

I am really looking for a 8x10 & 4x5 setup linhof... I looked at them and thought they are same, but not. Thank you so much!
When the B system was introduced Linhof also had two other camera systems. The 45S that will not do what you want and then the original Kardan Super Color system which will convert to 57 and 810 and did use the same rail as the B system. Unfortunately Linhof did not make many of these and soon discontinued it for the Kardan Super Color JBL and the later cameras.Quote:
