Hello All,
I just purchased a Technika Master 4x5. I have two lenses from a Toyo monorail, a Nikkor-SW 90mm f4.5 and a Nikkor-W 210mm f5.6.
The 90 uses a copal #0 shutter, and the 210 a copal #1 shutter.
I'm assuming that to mount these on my Technika, I simply need to buy a copal #0 and copal #1 lensboard. However, are there any other things to consider? Do I need a recessed lensboard for the 90mm?
Also, from searching online, it appears that lensboards don't all have the hole in the center of the lensboard. I'm assuming there is a reason for this, but I don't know how it may apply to my lenses, or if I should be concerned.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! (I'm a noob to 4x5)
