    Ideas for a lens for an interesting vintage Seneca 8x10

    I have a rather interesting vintage Seneca 8x10 camera - have a look below:



    As you can see, the Rise/Fall and Shift movements are made by a combination of sliding the lensboard or rotating the entire assembly! A pretty ingenious arrangement, if you ask me!

    I don't have the info on the existing lens/shutter (sorry! I'll find out!), but the shutter sounds crisp and breaks cleanly when fired, and the glass looks good. However, I'd like suggestions for other options. I'll be doing mostly landscapes, with a bit of studio/portraiture as well.

    Thoughts?
