: I have a Super Graphic and just bought a 75mm rodenstock
: lens for it. All the literature says you can use these
: wide angle lens on Pacemaker's and Super Graphics. But
: now I find that the "in the body" portion of the rails
: do not move with the focuser like the Crown Graphic does.
so
: I can't focus with this lens.
: It comes to focus in a position that I can't even lock
: the lens in position in focus. Anyone ever solve this problem??
I'm
: thinking of getting an old Crown for parts and taking the
rail
: out and trying to install it in my Super.
I think 75mm may be a bit short for the 4X5.
i don't thnk the camera was designed for a lens that short.
Are you sure it covers the film adequately?
: Thanks,
