I am looking for informations using a G-Claron 210/9 with 8x10"

Will a G-claron 210 really cover 8x10? I'm skeptical.


The 210 G Claron covers 8x10 with room to spare when stopped down to F22,
even more room to spare as you stop down more. I used one on my Deardorff
8x10 for several years doing a lot of exterior architecture and
landscapes.
However, I don't know how it compares with any other 210 lens for 8x10,
the
G Claron is the only one I used.

So you're suggesting I was lying when I said I used it and it covered 8x10
or what? All of the lenses in the G Claron series cover substantially more
than Schneider's image circle numbers show when they are stopped down to
about f16 to f22 and the coverage continues to increase as they continue to
be stopped down. I presently use a 240 G Claron for 8x10. Schneider shows it
as having something like a 305 image circle IIRC whereas 8x10 requires about
325mm but in fact it has ample coverage for 8x10 with movements when stopped
down to f22 or smaller. The use of the 210mm G Claron for 8x10 has been
asked and answered affirmatively many times. Check out the archives at
www.largeformatphotography.info.

we are very touchy today, eh!

Saying that according to the manufacturer the lens doesn't cover 8x10
doesn't imply that you are lying, unless you are suggesting scheneider is
lying when you say the lens does cover 8x10 and then some!! It just means
you are happy with the resolving power of the lens at the edges of 8x10, but
the manufacturer is not. This is a simple case of YMMV.

I'll have assume the G Claron will cover 8x10 though I've not used the 210
version but I can tell you the 305 covers 7x17 (my Korona) making it a fine
11x14 (My Seneca) WA and yes I've used it for just that and no falloff I've
ever noticed though its movements are rather limited. The G Clarons are
exceptional lenses and are very much understated of their covering power
when stopped down. I've commonly heard the 210 G Claron would cover 8x10 and
would never doubt it! I'm a G Claron believer!! One of the best LF lens buys
out there and compact too!
I currently use the older 210 5,6 Fuji W (the little 58 mm threaded version)
and it covers 8x10 with ease! Fine glass!

Is there more room than a Fuji W 210/5,6 or a Symmar-S 210/5,6.
Thanks for sharing your experience

Thanks to all for the information.
After that I got a very nice second hand one and tried it.
It does cover 8x10" with enough coverage for my personal use and the
fixed bellow on my Zone VI camera.
