Re: [Largeformat] Ektar lens/coverage issues
From: "Ken Hough" <k4sb@niia.net>
The amount of rise that the Speed Graphic is really about all that that lens
can take.
A 90mm Angulon is a nice lens with coverage. You are about to open that
proverbial can of lens worms......Lots of opinions....Read carefully.

Hello all,
I'm new to this board, so I was wondering if there was anyone here who could give me some advice. I have a 4x5 Crown graphic (which I love), and an Ektar 127 f4.7 lens. I know this lens barely covers the format, but I wonder if I might get a little bit of front rise out of it if I stop it
down to f32? I'd also like recommendations of wide to moderate angle lenses for 4x5 that allow movements. I'm on a tight budget, unfortunately. Anyone who has experience with this Kodak lens, I'd welcome your input:)
Sincerely,
Josh
