Hi there,
Looking to see if anyone knows what portrait lenses would have been used in the 1912-1922 era. for my 4x5 Top Handle Speed Graphic with Focal Plane Shutter.
I am not looking for the soft focus look, I like to see all the details. I will be doing shoulders up followed by full body shots. Most will be indoors with only natural lighting, using black and white film.
I looked at at the graflex website... here is the link to the website listing, my camera is the second Top Handle camera...

Thanks for any help!
