james_r_babb Posted November 3, 1997 Share Posted November 3, 1997 I can't find any mention in the Calumet catalog about recessed lens boards for the Tachihara/CalumetXM/Osaka 4x5 field. Are these available? Will recessed lensboards for the Linhof Tech fit for, say, a 55mm Grandagon? And can a recessed lensboard be used reversed for more bellows draw on a 300??Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qtluong Posted November 3, 1997 Share Posted November 3, 1997 The tachihara takes lensboards made for the Tech IV and up. With my tachi I was able to use a 58mm lens on a flat board (front base tilt + front axis tilt). Recessed boards tend to be awkward and expensive. Extension boards are a simpler device.

david_j._cleverdon Posted December 24, 1997 Share Posted December 24, 1997 I have alway wondered if it would be possible to turn a recessedlensboard around and use it to get additional bellows length fora longer lens. I also have a tachihara, Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
