Schneider Super-Angulon 165mm f/8 Lens Coverage

[Jim Moore]

So I have this old beast of a lens sitting unused and was thinking of selling it cheap.

But before I do can anyone tell me what the largest format is that it will cover? Will it cover 11x14?

I know it will cover 8x10..... Hmmmm.... Might just keep it for when I get a 4x10

Thanks in advance for any info...

f:1.8? You must have the special version. Does it take two people to lift it?

I think it just covers 8x10".

I think they call that "Kevin Fingers" in the chat room

Should have been 1:8 not 1.8.

Typo fixed.

Jim, I think you'll find it will cover the 11X14 stopped all the way down. I wouldn't get too hasty until I tried it.

David, it's the plain "unsuper" Angulon f:6.8 which just barely covers 8x10".
Unless the Angulon is very old - then it might cover 9.5x12" (24x30cm), which incidentally is the design target of the Super Angulon 165mm f:8.
