Pete,
Go ahead and see if the cells fit, then run some test shots. I've
never tried the switch you're contemplating, but I will say that in
my experience the Graphex shutter is indeed superior to the Kodak
Supermatic (and the Synchro-Compur also, for that matter), so I can
readily understand your impulse to switch out the lens elements.
I'm sure there are those who will disagree with my opinion on the
Graphex vs. Kodak and Compur, but I can only relate my experience
in the matter. Good luck! Henry
