    Re: 360mm Lenses for 8x10

    I wonder if I could convert my main studio camera.

    But before drilling and tapping a Linhof, I will wait to see a Norma in my studio.

    Of course you have to test with your specific plates, and adjust if necessary, to make it all work.

    In all my years of Norma use, I've not used the cable much. But it does works.

    Linhof made Kardan backs with the cable release socket on their GT, GTL, TL, etc. models.

    This will fit all Linhof Kardan models, except the Standard, made since the Kardan B series.

    Most Wista wood and metal field cameras also have this feature on their backs to automate their Wista shutters.
