Hello
I'm new to the LF camaras.
I wont tu buy one Graflex Super Graphic but I'm not sure what lens to choose.
My main interest will be portraid from full body in ambient to 3/4 body full frame.
Sould be ok a 150 mm? Whar about full fill the film?
My second interest is landscape.

I really appreciate suggestions and tips

Thanks, Salva

Yes a 150 Symmar S or a 152 ektar would be fine for portraiture or landscape, although I think you'll find you'll want to get a wider lens for landscape eventually. Either a 90 or a 127mm. An Optar in either focal lenght will work well and not be very expensive.
