I have on it a 210mm Rodenstock sironar N. It won't fold with it, but I don't mind that too much. Somehow I think that going forward, one lens is not going to be adequate. Thanks guys.

WOW, what a deal for the price. I have yet to shoot with it, but after taking it out of the aluminum padlocked case it came with, it is sure a piece of art. (I can't imagine the Ebony, but don't think it could be worth over 1,000 USD more...) The craftmenship is quite remarkable, and any kind of movement I wanted, all I had to do was play around to figure out what knob did what.

I am very impressed. Thanks to all the Apuggers who helped with my decision, and thanks Dennis from the View Camera Store.

Congrats on the move! Just wondering for the price advertised there, did it come with the case also?

yes, 625 USD includes the case. I had to order another lens board for an extra 30. an excellent value if you ask me.
