Dear Friends,

    Let that be a lesson to you - do not set up your camera on the road just
over the brow of a hill.

    But I digress - with consummate ease - what I really wanted to ask was
whether any manufacturer has ever made a zoom large format lens. I know
about the Schneiders for the MF and all of the SF stuff. I was also not
thinking of multi lenses or convertibles.

     No, has there ever been a dialable focal length-changing view camera
lens? It would save a lot of backpacking space and lensboard shuffling and
studio juggling....
