Do Wisner boards fit Tachihara 8x10?

[Daniel_Buck]

Hello, I'm wondering if a wisner lens board will fit onto a Tachihara 8x10 front standard?

Anyone know what other boards natively (no adapter) fit the Tachihara 8x10?

Thanks!

Depends, if by Tachihara you mean the new version which is very much like a Wista 8x10 then probably yes as the Wista 8x10 itself accepts Sinar boards. OTOH, the old version of the Tachihara may or may not accept them too. I used to have the old version Tachihara and don't recall ever trying a Sinar board on it but I now have a Wista which does accept Sinar boards.

My tachihara is new, so the wista boards fit? Are Wista boards the same as Wisner 8x10 boards?

Sorry, Daniel, I confused Wisner board for Sinar.... go figure.

Sinar boards fit the Wista - Wisner boards do not - they are too small. My Wisner was modified to take Sinar boards and the Wisner board I had was just that, too small (by a 1/2 inch or so ?)
