    Poll: Longest Focal Length You Own (4x5)

    Might as well ask this as well. If your FL is not represented, pick the nearest one.

    This is intended for 4x5.

    My longest is 450mm.

    Re: Poll: Longest Focal Length You Own (4x5)

    I said 360, because that's the longest I typically use on 4x5", but I have a few longer lenses that I could use on my 8x10" Sinar P with a 4x5" back, but I've only done so out of curiosity, to see what they look like. Here's a shot with that setup and a 75cm element from my Busch Vademecum set--



    This involved two tripods, which isn't something I care to do that often.

    My longest LF lens is the convertible Symmar 1:5.6/360 - 1:12/620mm. But I've voted with the whole lens only. ;-)

    Mine is 800mm Nikon - far from the longest allowed to vote for.

    500 Fujinon, but if I had extension bellows and third standard for my 4x5 Arca-Swiss, I'd love to mount my Nikkor 1200 mm that I use on my 8x10 system.
    When I grow up, I want to be a photographer.

    Damn ... I am so completely negated with numbers I'm surprised I'm still shooting. I voted 360 when my longest is actually 460. Oops.

    45cm Artar and 600mm Fujinon T
