Hello all.
I have been shooting for a while with a 152 Ektar, but recently repaired and adjusted the FP shutter on my Speed Graphic. To celebrate I bought an inexpensive 180 Jena, and now I have what is probably a stupid question. Here goes: How do I mount this thing?
It has no retaining ring, and is about 20 mm wider than the one that secures the 152mm. I've done a little bit of looking around and can't seem to find any 56mm retaining rings that I could mount on lens board. Am I looking for the wrong thing here? Is there an easier way to go? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Scott

www.skgrimes.com may stock the ring you need. Also ask Equinox Photographic, google for 'em.
