   Several Graflex models take interchangible lenses. The
minimum focal length is limited by having to clear the
mirror as in all SLR's but the cameras will take a variety
of longer lenses, including telephoto lenses.
   I am not sufficiently familiar with the European SLR's to
know which take interchangible lenses. The Mirroflex might
but it uses lenses in a helical focusing mount rather than
bellows focusing so you are pretty limited right there.
