A lens board each with a lens

Do shout at me if this is the simplest question ever to grace this forum...

 

I am buying a Toyo 45CF and lenses (65, 90, 150, 300)

 

I plan to take this kit on a trip to Tibet, where dust will be an issue.

 

How does it work, do i get each lens with its correct lensboard and keep them

attached permanently? Just replace the lens+lensboard every time I need to

change the lens?

 

Theoretically, if all the lenses took the same shutter size, and thus had a

similar size hole, I assume it will be a pain ITA to keep changing the lens? Not

to mention this allows for dust to get in.

 

A kind word to a newbiw will be greatly appreciated

 

THanks in advance

Having each lens on its own board is by far the most convenient way of working; that said, my most used lenses are each on their own board, but I have one board with a large iris diaphram mounted on it that can hold any of several lenses I have that I don't use as often. It works out very well, but I'm dealing with twice as many lenses as you have listed (way more than I really need!). If you only have four lenses, put them on their own boards.
