[LargeFormat] WTB

Faced with a similar situation, with my Tachahara, I use a nikkor 270mm "T"
lens.  With this lens I can go almost 1 to 1 (great for wild flowers.  With
a standard 300 mm lens I can only focus from about 40 ft to infinity.

<(:|)You will need to carefuly measure the length of your bellows..
<(:|)I believe you will need to get a 300mm TELEPHOTO design
<(:|)lens... it uses only 65% of the FL as the infinity bellows
<(:|)draw.... or 200mm.. Otherwise you will need 300mm... or 12
<(:|)inches.  And more at closer focusing distance.
