That Kodak lens is quite valuable and its images very nice. Unfortunately, it is for large format, so any adaptation will require something quite long. You'll only be using a small portion of the image circle, but supposedly it is sharp in the middle.


I have soviet lens OF-233 that share the aero ektar formula. It deserve to be adapted! And it's not that hard to make something quite solid when you have the screw holes on the mount of the lens (like on yours).
Here is my adaptation (lens is on the right) : https://pp.vk.me/c618226/v618226486/d3c2/yDgqUdOpl88.jpg
And the lens without the adapter : https://pp.vk.me/c622125/v622125486/b97f/2CLw3sGMhtc.jpg

Amazing looking contraption. Have you blogged/posted on how to do this anywhere?
I saw your images before and was blown away by them.

I don't have a large format camera yet, so I am not too hurried with the Aero Ektar. I need to decide if I will mod it for digital, or go for the full Graflex route... I suspect I should just get a large format digital camera, but I don't have the funds right now...
