I've just got my 4x10 back for my Chamonix 45H-1.
And lens wise I've got a G-Claron 210 that works well. If I understand it it's the equivalent of a 35mm widen angle in the 135 format. (not so easy to compare given the different ratios but more or less anyway)
A bit wider would be nice too, say 150-165mm.
But then comes a interesting problem.
Lenses I found so far in that range that covers 4x10 (270mm) is hard to find, huge, heavy and expensive ($1000+).
For example the 150mm f5.6 Schneider Super Symmar XL, 155 f6.8 Rodenstock Grandagon N or 65 f8 Schneider Super Angulon
I could go even wider, but then it's more of a special event lens, and not as useful day to day.
The funny thing is that there actually is more lenses available in the 110 to 125mm range to reasonable prices like the 120mm f8 Nikkor SW and 125 f8 Fujinon SW
So if anyone has any suggestion of other lenes in the 150mm-165mm range that perhaps is smaller and lighter or less expensive or more readily available I would be more than happy.
