Hi Gustavo,

Yup, they're called Adapter Boards... for example, an adapter board can be made to fit a Deardorff 8x10 (6x6 rounded corners) and accept the smaller Linhof Technika board mounted lenses.

Likewise, Sinar also has an adapter board that accepts the Technika board mounted lenses as well.

So, it all depends on what you want to fit onto the board that will determine the size.

Lastly, you'd find it difficult to fit a Sinar 5.25x5.25 board onto a 6x6 board though... not enough room!

Good luck...

[BTW, there's people out there making these boards already... ]

Cheers
