I don’t have any experience with 8x10, but there is something about this discussion I find surprising.

One of the things that I like about using different formats is the difference in what can and...

To play safe, I went for a cheaper and smaller alternative as my starting point for older lenses.

It's an unnamed...

If I move along with this, I'd just go without shutter. The initial goal is just to see if this is useful and pleasant. If I like it, I may search for a more permanent option (which may not be based...

Thanks! This is a very helpful clarification and warning.

Guess I should be extra careful with buying lenses without being able to assess in person whether they would fit, and the kind of...

While I have some sympathy for the general idea that there are probably less expensive and cumbersome ways of achieving a given effect, I strongly doubt that adding motion-blur is the right kind of...

I'm aware this topic has already been discussed, but here I'd like to link it to a more specific question:

How realistic would it be to use a smallish Petzval-lens like this, or that to a Linhof...

I checked again, and the leak is in a third place I dismissed too quickly before: it's between the bellows and the front plate.

I've noticed a slight light-leak in my Tech III somewhere close to the lens-board (I can see this by looking into the bellows from the back while the shutter is closed.

I recently acquired a Technika III, which I intend to use on a Manfrotto 055-series (15 year old model) tripod.

Since I only own a...

Update to my previous post: I clearly used ambiguous information. The prontor svs came in different sizes, and my Ektar 203 (which I received today) is fitted in a size #0.

Conclusion: I need to...

I'm now one step closer to being able to use my Technika III: A lens is on its way...

This means I have a new question: the lens I bought is a Kodak Ektar 203mm, in a so-called 370 mount with a...

Thanks for the feedback.

Just one more question: should I stay away from lenses like the original symmar, or the kodak ektar 127 and 203? (if I want some movements, and a flare-resistant lens)

I'm new to LF in the sense that I may be buying a Linhof Technica III (I know about the lack of interchangeability with later models, and don't mind for now).

I'm not entirely new to LF: I learned...
