Hi all,

I'm mounting a barrel 240/9 g-claron onto a polaroid shutter, and wanted to know what the conversion is like. I have the 127mm tominon copal shutter, goes from 4.5 to 45, and remember seeing that 5.6 on the tominon scale equals f9 on the claron scale, and you just transform from there, e.g. 5.6 1/2=11, 8 1/2=16, etc. I just wanted to check with others who've done this to make sure, at least as a good starting point. Thanks,

GB
