Lens Board Question

[andred2809]

Hi Folks,

Just bought my second LF lens, and needed to by another lens board for it, like my existing lens is has a copal 0 shutter, so I bought what I thought was a copal 0 lens board( linhof, wista type, camera is a wista 45d).

I thought nothing else of it until it arrived today and I noticed that the hole was not centre, which looked quite odd, I had a quick look on the site I bought the lens board and it does actually say 'off-centre' board.. DOOH.

can I still use this board? or do I need to send it back and get it replaced?

Regards,

Andy.

Actually for a Linhof or a Wista that is where the hole is supposed to be. There are all sorts of threads about the hole placement on a Technika 45 board on this forum. Do a search and read them.

just use it, it'll be fine...
