  2. Re: Front for Shanel mounted lens boards on FKD 13x18

    I found that in order to use the B "bulb" mode the Shanel 5A seems to require a cable release with a long throw. Have you encountered this and what type of cale release do you use?

    Re: Best 8x10 camera for ultra-wide angle?

    I was intrigued to see the Canham JMC810 metal 8x10" camera has a minimum bellows extension of 69.5 mm, which is remarkable!

    This is my current 11x14 setup. I bought one of Kumar's adapters that allows me to use the 480mm APO Nikkor in a Shanel 5A shutter on this camera.

    Today Fotoimpex updated its listings for Bergger 13x18cm and 11x14" sheet films to "Out of stock (Expected back aprox. 25.10.2022)" which suggests a new delivery is coming, hopefully.
