Lens board adapters allow easy interchange of lenses from one camera model to another. A popular method for exchanging lenses between different brands of view cameras is to fit all the lenses to a small, standard lens board, such as the Linhof Technika then use a “receiver board” which allows another camera to accept them.

Common Lens Board Adapters

Some of these are available directly from the manufacturer, but we can make practically any kind. These adapters use existing factory or custom lens boards with parts added to make a convenient, light tight arrangement.

A two point (in some cases, three point) mount with a sliding clamp at the top (or sides) makes a firm fit of the small board to the large one. Small dimensions make designs that are suitable for recessed board applications.
