Can't escape the clutches of LF so invested in (small) 5x4 kit!!

SOLD Canham 6x17 Motorised Film back (with spare batteries) fits the Walker 5x7, lovely condition with even frame spacing and film always held flat! - £750 (price new is £1140)

Do you have the model IDs for the lens cases? Are they for 4x4 or 6x6 lens panels?

Thanks,
Rob

Sorry! They are both designed for the smaller sized lens panels (4x4) as aguide they comfortably hold lenses on Linhof/Wista sized panels.

Looking at the Photobackpacker website they offer lens cases that cater for small, normal, large and tele lenses .... any idea how yours would be classified ?

Fujinon 250mm F6.7 lens - mint condition, a real sleeper will cover almost 10x8 and only uses a Copal 1 size shutter
Hi Paul – I use this lens for 10x8 (the version that has lettering inside the filter ring rather than on the outside of the barrel).

More coverage and quality than any other lens I've used (huge 398mm image circle, so it covers 10x8 with lots of movements).

It is the later f/6.3 version that has less coverage.

Cheers,
Stephen

I've now found model numbers for the lens cases :shock:
Long case is LS-1150-4 and measures approx 31x12x12cms externally and the small case is L4044 and measures approx 12x12x11 cms.

Fuji 250mm has been provisionally sold
