[LargeFormat] G-Claron 210mm for 8x10?

         Don't feel so bad Tim, I live very close to 4 excellent camera 
stores, at least by today's standards, and none of them would have one of 
those lenses in stock.  In fact, only one of them has any LF gear, a couple 
of used lenses in a dusty box.    In fact, a trip this past spring to 
Toronto, (Canada's largest city), and none of the main, 
professional,  camera stores, even the specailty ones, had a Claron of any 
kind in stock at the time.

         Just a freindly reminder for all, there's a lot of people out 
there, some of them on this list, like Tim or myself,  who simply have Zero 
opportunity to go to any local camera store (in my case, "local"  includes 
camera stores within a three hour drive)   to test drive any LF lens, so 
opinions on this list are extremely valuable and appreciated.
