Hi Les,
I've always used my 90SA without issue on my Super Graphic and generally
drop the bed. I seem to recall however, that the break point is right
close to where the lens wants to focus! Or maybe that's a Crown
Graphic, now I'm not sure... ;-)
I had the feeling that the 90 was about the limit for keeping the rails
out of view so wondered in the 65 would be too much of a good thing!
