I mean using top hat lensboard for easier mount to camera than always mount the rear element from back of camera.
 
Has anyone own or experienced with these lenses :



1. Carl Zeiss Tessar 21cm f3.5 T
2. Schneider Tele Xenar 30cm f5.5
3. Voigtlander Heliar 21cm f4.5
4. Apo Nikkor 360mm f9

- Is Zeiss f3.5 is a good lens especially wide open?
- What maximum format Apo Nikkor can cover?

Thank You
 
I think it depends on how much you would have to pay? As someone mentioned, the 600 Fuji "C", if that's the lens being sold, is too long for 4x5. I sold a 600mm Fuji "C" lens a few years ago for over $3400.
