How many LF lenses do you own?

[imazursky]

I have 4
90mm Super angulon
135mm graflex 4.7 (Almost as good as modern lenses)
180mm Nikkor m
210mm Schneider Symmar S MC
I now mostly use the 90 and 210 but the 135 is begging to be taken out again.

90mm f/4.5, 121mm f/8, 210mm f/5.6, 240mm f/5.6, 360mm f/6.8, all in DB mount (which is why I could afford them!)

540mm f/11 Copying Ektanon barrel lens.

127mm f/4.7 Ektar (on Graphic board)

180mm f/5.5 Tele-Xenar (on Graphic board)

My most commonly used DB lenses are the 360 and the 121.

Next lens is likely a Fujinon-W 180mm 5.6, primarily intended for my 5x7 field camera (and will be a "normal" lens with lots of movement on 4x5 as far as horizontal AOV goes). After that, probably a 300 convertible. These lenses might sound redundant, but I want them in their own shutters specifically for this one field camera, for which I want a two lens kit.

[sun of sand]

90mm f4.5 Grandagon
150mm f5.6 Sironar-N
Cooke 158mm -barrel
210mm F9 JML (Goodkin-Astro) -barrel
Meniscus achromat from Brownie postcard 2C
Ditto from Horizontal 3A Buster Brown -never use as the Brownie is much sharper centrally and much more crazy away from center


Rather have a 75 instead of 90mm
I use the Cooke most often

[Alan Davenport]

My list is pretty short.

For the 5x7
Schneider Super Angulon - 8/120 mm
Schneider Angulon - 6.8/16.5 cm - Most used and my favorite!!

For the 8x10
Kodak Wide Field Ektar - 6.3/10 in - Most used
B&L Protar VII - 12/19/23.5 in

All of my work is contact printed with either Azo or Palladium toned Kallitype (Thanks Sandy for putting me on to this!).

Forgot to mention these

ILEX PARAGON ANASTIGMAT F:4.5 165mm
Benoist Berthiot Hypergonar H Chretien 16mm Anamorphic (this lens will be fun to use)

Very few and humble, given this crowd:

90mm f/8 Caltar (a Rodenstock Geronar low-budget 4 element Tessar-looking thing). Not half as bad as my friends (and I) feared it would be. Better image quality than my alternative wide angle, anyway (a 28mm Nikkor on 35mm). Forget about much in the way of swings and tilts, but it's small and light.

150mm f/5.6 Nikkor. My favorite lens, and i use it the most. A beauty.

210mm f/6.8 Caltar (another Geronar, this time a 3-element). Adequate, but i usually find a way to use the Nikkor instead.
