What is the widest lens you can use with a Toyo 45CX? Many thanks!

Yaakov,

With a bag bellows I can use a 65mm on a flat lens board and with a recessed lens board about 47mm. With a standard bellows I can use down to about 90mm but the bellows resists any movements. With anything below 110mm it is necessary to slide the standards and mounting block all the way to the front of the monorail or it will show up in photographs.

Hope this helps,
