[HUG ] Re: frankenstein camera

Nice one......

The digital sensor is 40x40mm...... the 35mm frame is 24x36......
The Voigtlander lenses cost a few hundred, and Eric may already own
them.....

But they get really close to eh film plane, and movements take up room for
bellows to compress.   A leica has about a 1 inch lens flange to film plane
distance.....are we close?

Certainly worth a shot.....

I wonder what the image circle of the CV 12, 15, 21,
and 25mm lenses are?

Intended for 35mm, so probably not full frame on 4x4 -
but if you want wide!
