Hi Charles,
Couldn't find data on the Caltar but I did for the
Rodenstock  Grandagon     viz:    8 elements/4 groups  75mm   f4.5     =
195mm circle coverage          83mm film to flange

You did not mention your camera but a sunken lensboard and bag bellows =
would help you with rising front!  Philip

  Hi everyone,
  =20
  I recently acquired a Caltar II-N 75mmf/4.5 in excellent shape
  and I was wondering if anyone had any comments or experience
  with this lens.  I'm assuming it's the same design as the=20
  Rodenstock 75/4.5 Grandagon.  I'm planning to shoot some
  transparencies in the near future to test it out, but I'd love any
  input from the list.  Thanks!
