My solution was G-Claron 270mm f9 - beautiful lens, very sharp and compact. I think it's a great replacement for 240mm and 300mm lenses. Also, it is the longest lens you can comfortable use on most...

Thanks! I'm in New York.

I'm going to use 14" f/9 Goerz Artar with new camera, not some heavy lenses in Copal-3.
My current longest lens with Wista is 240mm, and often it is not enough.

Hi Eugene,
Ebony RW45 looks good and i'm sure it is very well built camera, but it has only 340mm bellows extentions. ( Zone has 22" bellows, ~558mm)

Will extention board make camera less rigid at full extention?

I can't find any specifications for Horseman Super 120/5.6. As far as i know Horseman "super" line is designed to cover 4x5. But will i have any movements possible with this lens?

Thank you all! I will probaly buy both lenses since price is good, and will sell one on eBay later. I think it will be the best way to choose. :)

Thanks for your answers!
I don't really need large amount of movements for landscapes.

Hi, I have a chance to buy a Horseman PW 65mm f5.6. I'm planning to use it on 6x9 linhof.
Anyone have experience of this lens? Is it good? How it will compare with older angulon 65/6.8? Thanks.

I will try to move it away from the groundglass. I'm thinking about using diopters to focus it. Lightmeter will need to be recalibrated to compensate light loss, but it easy to do with those kiev...

David, thanks. I'm going to use "right angle finder" to be able to look through it without hitting my forehead.

Now i have another question - will it be possible to move prism farther away from...

Friend of mine going to send me Kiev TTL spot metering prism, he has no use for it, but it is pretty accurate, within +- 1/3 stops from his sekonic (as he said me).
I'm planning to make adapter...
