[LargeFormat] rising front

[philip Lambert]

Thanks. One of the things I am about at the moment is making a deeply
recessed board to focus infinity with a 47mm and as the bellows will be
locked solid I would like to set the lens/shutter about 8mm above center and
was wondering whether this would bring in a useful amount of the top of
distant buildings.  . Shall try it.
