50mm Mamiya Press or 55mm Mamiya TLR lens on 6x9 Field Camera

I just bought a Horseman 980 camera and a 105mm Nikkor lens for it and

this morning was thinking about a wide angle lens. Has anyone tried to

use a 50mm f6.3 lens from the Mamiya Universal or the 55 mm wide angle

lens from the Mamiya TLR on a board for a camera such as the Horseman?

 

Thanks for any help or opinions.

No, but the TLR lens is only designed to cover 6x6, so it's probably not going to give you

the image circle you're looking for (although certainly some lenses from that period do

have excess coverage...)

 

The 50/6.3 I have, it covers 6x9 with some room for movements, it just misses covering

the Polaroid format.
