So
the new year is coming up fast
One of my projects for the next year is to build a large format camera.
Maybe an 8x10"
I can make everything except the lens, so I was wondering what makes a LF lens different to a MF or 35mm ??? :shrug:
I know some modern digital lenses cant project the image onto a full frame sensor - just a crop sensor etc
is it the same for the old ones ???
If I am to buy into a lens "system" with a particular mount, which are cheapish, but still decent quality ? Obviously I could make numerous lens boards with different mounts, so I dont necessarily need to get tied into one mount type.
any advice ... muchly appreciated
