Hi, I'm buying a Linhof Technikardan and need to know what the longest lens I can use is, I can't seem to find out online.
I am asking specifically about the Technikardan 45, NOT the S45 (perhaps they're the same, but still!)
Thank you

bellows extension is 485mm but there is an rail extension bracket accessory available for tele or macro if required. I don't know how long the extension is but you can see it as item 17 in the brochure.

Personally I would get a Technika which is far more rigid, especially at longer extensions.

Some modern tele lenses don't require the extension of the focal length.
