    Go shoot some film with the camera in your hands. That helps a lot.

    There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!

    It might be kind of difficult. The flange to film distance will be different, so you'd probably have to shim it somehow.

    Their statement: "The Travelwide 65 is fixed focus, so it's more difficult to adapt to other lenses, but if you're willing to shim and/or sand down the camera, the 65 ƒ/4 might work."

    The flange distance of the 65mm nikkor is almost identical to the super angulon if I remember right. Shouldn't need much shimming if any, especially if you're shooting at smaller apertures.

    Yes. It essentially said that they had a lot of parts finished and had received those, but not all of the parts are ready yet. No mention of time, but my guess is it will be close to summer before they are ready to ship. I used to work construction and understand how schedules slip. First you calculate how long it should take, as accurately and precisely as possible, factoring in all potential variables. After long experience I learned that if I then doubled that time I would be getting close to reality....

    No worries boys. You are making progress. Just keep beavering away and you will finish in the time it takes.

    Best, Tim

    Good to hear. Things are moving along. Obviously not as fast as they had hoped but I believe that the end product will be even better for the delays.
