135/4.5 has helicoil, it you can fix a proper distance (like the 65-116 at
65mm) then you can focus from around 8 feet (if my memory serve) to
infinity.

For example, the 135/4.5 needs about 65mm of extension (in addition to 46mm
flange back) to reach infinity focus. I'm not sure what the 135/4.5's image
circle is, but I'd guess you could use it on most MF cameras, if you found
some safe way to mount it. If the rearward protrusion of any lens interferes
with the reflex mirror, then you have to lock up the mirror to avoid damage.
Then how do you focus?
