Resurrected Neretta
The 90/6.8 Optar arrived today! Installed, mounted the bracket, and it's ready to shoot. Hyperfocal focusing; stopped to f/22, I have about 6' to infinity in sharp focus. Used with ISO400 film, it's an effective 4x5 point-and-shoot. Have a couple Grafmatic holders on their way. Until then, regular film holders give me two shots.
Made from mahogany through mortise-and-tenoned, a Graflok, and 1/8" ply rigid nosecone. Based on plans from Sandeha Lynch.
