Kenneth Lee website gives good info on Large Format lenses

 There is some good information on this page if you want to learn more about Large Format lenses.
These lenses would be used with 4x5 or larger cameras.
 For those of you that want to learn to use this type of camera you will need to take traditional Darkroom I (ARS352) and then Darkroom II (ARS452) where you will have a choice from 4x5 to 8x10 cameras.
