Hi,

I had recessed lens board with 72saxl on the CF and it just worked without any movements A(well absolutely minimal movements).

The ebony 45SU I have will work with your 65. In fact, many of the ebony's would be okay with taht lens. Check out their web site.

REgards,

Mark

Bob,

I hope I am not getting my wires crossed but I thought the CF is totally different from the C. I had a CF, the new toyo carbon fibre model folding field camera, and used a Schneider 72SAXL on it. It was okay as long as I didnt want any movements and did not want to focus too close up. In close up situations there was not sufficient stability for the large lens, especially inwindy conditions. I sold it and purchased an Ebony 45SU and have not had those problems since.

I am sure the other folding Toyo's would also be more stable: the AX Aii etc. as would a DCL 45, Horseman FD, FA etc.

Regards, Mark

Gents,

Thanks heaps for very prompt replies.

Much appreciated. I will get on to looking at the recommended ones.

Hi all, Sorry for another ball head question but I see manfrotto have

released a new product

http://www.bogenimaging.us/product_temp/templates/templates.php3?

sectionid=8&itemid=1958 and am wondering if this would be suitable

for my ebony 45SU for field work. I have a Gitzo 1327 tripod. Any

advice would be greatly appreciated.

I did look at archives but the only reference to this head is about

35mm equipment.

Thanks in advance,

Mark
