    where to get retaining ring for Kodak 100mm wide field ektar

    I just purchased a Kodak 100mm wide field ektar. Can anyone tell me where to find a retaining ring and a lens board for this lense to fit a Crown Graphic 4 x 5. It is in a Kodak Flash Supermatic shutter. I'm new to large format and I'm not sure where to look.

    Thanks

    eBay for both the board and the ring is where I'd look first.

    I've bought a few lens flanges from this eBay store: http://stores.ebay.com/artinprogress

    There are always lens boards for Crown Graphics on eBay as well.

    Thanks, I'll check these places out. Does anybody know offhand what diameter hole I need in the board for this lens/shutter combination?

    I looked up this shutter on Google, which sent me to eBay:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Kodak-Supermatic...QQcmdZViewItem

    According to the seller of this shutter, the flange is 30mm.

    thanks, I don't know why I didn't think of a search. It appears that i need slightly larger than a 38mm hole.
