You may know more about this than I do. If so educate me please. I think it's for 612 or 617 Horseman Fotoman Panoramic cameras. Hole is for Copal 0. Since it has f4.5 I assume it's for a Grandagon? $295.

Also if the price is wrong educate me too. I'm gauging on the china knock off's that go for 460 dollars on the 'bay.

The dimensions on this cone look to be about right for the SW612 system. They compare exactly to my 55mm lens cone.

Thanks. Are 612 and 617 interchangeable with these parts?

That's definately not for a horseman camera, the screw pattern is completely different. The spacing on the distance and hyperfocal scales looks similar to a 90mm lens - and the helicoid says f=90mm. The cone is also pretty shallow - on a Horseman the cone for a 90 is much longer, so the camera for that lens must have a lens mount that sits further out than the Horseman. Curious what it is...

Read i she
I meant the distance between the horizontal lens mount screws - the Horseman screws are spaced further apart.

Seemed similar enough to my sw612 lens board. But i didn't measure the screw holes center to center on the body. I do 100% agree the lens cone is not deep enough when compared to my 90mm lens cone. That thing is massive. it's likely for the fotoman 612 cameras. OP can write fotoman an email, they tend to be responsive..

Maybe. Here's the 55 from the side. Looks wider, but I'm just eyeballing it.

Measured with the lens cone set to infinity on the 90mm lens.
