[LargeFormat] 5x7 Lens Information (was: Largeformat Web Page)

[Rich Lahrson]

Hi Clive,

    Yes, I've been viewing Michael Gudzinowicz's lens page on the f/32
forum.  An
interesting lens is an older Kodak Wide Field Ektar 190mm/6.3.  The
image circle
is listed as 318mm. This lens is a definite candidate for purchase.

     If anyone has experiences  and other info on this lens, it would be
appreciated.

Thanks!
