Lens board help
Posted: 20 May 2013, 16:36
Hi,
This is my first post and I'm new to 4x5 cameras.
I will be receiving a used Linhof Karden Color 4x5 camera shortly - bought off Ebay.
It's the one with a square monorail (not round).
I'm a bit confused as to which lens boards fit this camera.
163x163 size seems to be the size.
Will a Cambo Calumet board fit my camera?
They are the same size and seem quite easy to get - which is not the same for the Kardan.
I know I can get adaptors to downsize to the smaller Linhof boards if all else fails.
Any help would be welcome.
Many thanks, Paul.
