Matt There is not going to be an exact equivilent because the format porprotions are different. A rough factor for going from 35mm to 4x5 is 3. So, a 150 is about a 50mm and a 127mm is about a 40mm. There is not much difference. THere are some articles that might help on our web site www.viewcamera.com in the Free Articles section steve simmons

I use 4:1. That works for 8x10's from both formats. If you want 4x6 ratio print
use 3.33:1. Most folks seem to like a bit wider view with 4x5 than they do with 35mm film. -- MATT WILLIAMS wrote: In large format a 127mm and 150mm lens is equivalent to what size 35mm lens ?
