Homemade 5x4
Super Wide

47mm F5.6 Super Angulon
in Focusing Mount
Coverage is about 90x112mm.

An excellent afternoon project.

The lens with focusing mount was taken from a Brooks Veriwide and mounted using the existing retaining ring so that is easy to use the lens on either body. The ground glass back is from a *Bender kit, and the rest is cherry-wood and oak. The only real trick was getting the body depth just right to focus at infinity when the lens focusing helix is at infinity.
