Horsman 6x9 lensboard adaptors to fit Linhof type 5x4?

Post by leon taylor » Tue Jan 24, 2012 11:10 am Etc/GMT-1+01:00

I'm looking for a way of using a lens in a board which fits the Horseman 6x9 field cameras by mounting it on to a linhof type 5x4 camera lens board., or adaptor. Does anyone know if there was ever such a thing made or available? If not, are there any services that you know of that might be able to 'knock one up' for me?

I don't want to remove the lens and shutter from the Horseman board as it will require cutting the wire used for electronic shutter firing (not that I use that facility, but it would be nice to keep it intact), but I'd like to use my 65mm super topcor on my 5x4 camera.

thanks in advance.
