Hello,

I'm quite curious about this set up.
Is there any front rise possible with the 75 at infinity with the Shen Hao? If yes how much?

Regards from Germany

I guess it may depend on what 75mm lens you have. In my case I had a Nikon 75mm SW 4.5 Lens and I could get about 30mm of rise out of it using the standard bellows. If I needed any additional movements I had to switch to the bag bellows.

Obviously I did make myself not clear. What I mean: Will the frontstandard not interfere mit the housing using 75mm at infinity?

I don't think you'll hit the housing but you'll have to force the bellows to get much out of it anyway without bag bellows.

That will depend also very much on the lens you're using - If you have a Rodenstock 75 6.8, the limiting factor will absolutely be the flexibility of the standard bellows. If you're bold and have mounted a Nikor or Schneider 75 4.5, the rear element of the lens may hit the bellows before it runs out of flexibility.
