As big as it is, it only was intended for 46mm longroll...might cover 6x6, possibly round corners. I'm going to try macro.

It's a 50-150 constant aperture zoom, f/4.5-32, no shutter, 100 mm flange distance so some magnfication is possible on a 4x5 SG bed.

It's just one of those things that demanded trying out...

Warning: Fast panning with that lens attached may result in the lens board being riped out of the front standard and/or the front standard riped off the camera.

On the serious side, an angular support that cradles the bottom of the lens close to its front to the base of the front standard may improve the stability and reduce lens/camera shake when shooting.

Yeah, I was thinking it needs some support.

Tripod to prevent arm shake.

I have no leather handle, so it's really impractical until a handle gets put on it.
