Just bought my 4th old LFcamera, a 4x5 Korona I with full movements front and tilt/swing back. Like my other Korona in 5x7 I got the rear extension, so that my bellows can stretch about a mile.
My Asanuma King I extends about 3/4 of a mile on it's triple extension.
Now, what possible use does the heroic length of these bellows have? I would have to mount a telescope on the cameras to use that much extension, something like a 900 mm lens! Does anyone do this? What was the purpose of so much bellows lenght? Am I missing something obvious here?
