Interest in a new Hypergon?
Hey folks, I was approached by a fellow large format enthusiast about bringing a new Hypergon lens to market in 4x5 and 8x10 format. If you don't know what a Hypergon is, you really should. It is one of the widest if not *the* widest Field of View large format lens ever made, with no...

I look forward to seeing one of the new ones. I’ve seen a couple of the originals but never had an opportunity to shoot with one.

Worth a shot...no pun intended...
I'm assuming it will cover 8x10.
No sample photos...hmmmm...
I just e-mailed a friend in HK to let me know what he thinks.

Has anyone tried this yet? It seems inexpensive enough - I have owned the original 120 and currently have the original 90, fine lenses.
