Out of interest do the front & rear cells fit a Compur #1

I think so, but maybe someone who knows for sure could chime in.

The recommended format when focused at infinity:
90mm x 120mm
3.54in x 4.72in

The recommended format when focused at infinity:
90mm x 120mm
3.54in x 4.72in

It'll cover 5x4 easily the 135mm Xenars do as well. The German data says recommended for 9x12 because they never used 5x4 on the Continent at that time.

If you look at the datasheet it's image circle at f16 is 180mm 5x4 needs 153.7, in the page in the link given earlier it states 19.8 rise/fall and 16.5 shift.

Now I can bump with more info thanks to Ian G.:

This will likely fit a Compur / Copal #1 and "it's coated, by 1963 (from the S/N) all Schneider LF lenses were coated and they'd stopped adding the inverted red triangular symbol that indicated coating." "It's a capable lens..."

I agree and I am considering keeping it for digital art photos, but ...
