Hello All,

I'm interested in buying a Schneider-Kreuznach 250mm f/5.6 Tele Arton-S lens. The Schneider website says that since it is a telephoto lens, this 250mm lens only requires 207mm of bellows. If I'm going to get a cam for it, which cam do I get? Do I get a P80 (208mm) or do I get a P46/P17 (248.7mm/252mm)? I currently have a Crown Graphic with a top mounted rangefinder. Thanks and cheers.

The cams I have for both my 250 & 385mm tele-optars are stamped 250/385.

From a focus standpoint, the image behaves like it's stated focal length even though the lens is shorter with a negative element behind it.
