Since the subject has come up (and Sinar makes LF cameras), is there any
particular reason why 35mm system lenses, like the Zuikos, could not be
adapted to use with certain large format cameras? Granted, 50mm is not a
"normal" lens for 4x5, 5x7, 8x10, etc. And I'm assuming the focal plane
must fall within a specified distance from the lens. But from the
standpoint of optical design, is there any reason why such lenses wouldn't
work?
