Hi,
here are a lot of Pentax 645 / 67 shooters. I do have a specific question on leaf shutter lenses. Is there a possibility to fire (and cock) the leaf shutter without actually having the lens mounted to a P67 body? It seems that the lenses can be cocked on the lens itself and the 90mm seems to have also a cable release socket. On other lenses I did not see this. Can someone confirm this?
I'm thinking to adapt these lenses, but would need the shutter as my digital back does not have an ES. A related question is of course: is the IQ worth it? I like to shift quite a bit, so the larger image circle of the lenses would be most welcome.
Thank you!
