WTB: Large Format Lens (4x5)

[blitz]

I've picked up a Calumet CC-400 and need a shutter/lens. Looking for something on the cheaper end ($200 ish) and would prefer 100mm ish focal length.

I have a Copal-0 and Copal-1 lens plates so I can get by with those.

Also, if anyone has any spare 4x5 developing gear, I'm on the look for that as well.

Thanks!

There's only 2 of us on here that shoot LF that I know of (D'z Nuts and myself) so selection may be limited. :D

That said, check out KEH.com for some solid prices. I lean towards the Fujinon lenses as they are awesome bang-for-buck units. $200 is a bit low for a wide (~100mm, you'll find 90mm more common) but there's an EX-condition 90mm f/8 Fujinon-W for $245.00 on there right now. If you want something a bit longer, you can get a 180mm f/5.6 Fujinon-W for $144.00, I bought the same lens from KEH and it's excellent.

Congrats on the LF purchase!

Thanks for the info! Just bought the 90mm you recommended.

Also picked up a Tominon 105mm F4.5 Lens with MP-4 shutter for studio/macro work.

You might want to sign up at largeformatphotography.info. There's some good deals to be had if you check it regularly. I think you have to wait 30 days until you can view the marketplace, so you may as well sign up now.

If I had a Fujinon 90/8, I would've sold you my Super Angulon 90mm for $200.

Congrats on your purchase. 35mm and medium format will now look lame by comparison (unless you're shooting 617 :poosie: ).
