: Dennis,
: thanks for the information. Does having the infinity
: stops behind the front standard make closing the camera
: a problem? How about close focus? It would seem that
: being limited to the short rails in the body of the
: camera would limit bellows draw significantly. Thanks
: again.
: Dan
Obviously, the inf. stops need to be folded down
in order to back the standard into the camera
for closing. The lens may be used on the longer
bed rail for close focusing but I'd question
the value of doing that. The std 135mm can give
you 1:1 or larger.
