Some bellows cameras seem a bit limited at the wideangle end. It's not just
a matter of the standard bellows binding.
Speaking of which... I have an old Calumet 4x5 rail, which does not have an
interchangable bellows, and have been wondering if there's any point in
trying to find a 90mm for it. Would a recessed board be enough to give me
at least *some* movement? All I have in the way of lenses is a pretty old
165 (air shutter!), which doesn't seem particularly sharp, so if some spare
cash came my way, I'd consider splurging on a wide if was a sensible idea.
Comments?
