Hello Rich,

Kerry's web site is a useful resource and as you say, well worth a visit.

Just in case you haven't visited already, the f32.net web site also 
contains a lot of information. The f32 Discussion Forum for example 
at http://www.f32.net/discus/ and the search box at the top right of 
every page on the f32.net web site can take you to useful information.

I tapped in "Seneca" in the search box and came up with one of our 
list members' names, John Moore, who has been restoring a 5x7 Seneca 
Competitor.... hello John!  There is some information on lenses used 
in his post.

There is also a lens specification list that should easily allow you 
to determine the coverage of various lenses and to identify some 
names that will be worth following up. The Lens Spec. list is at the 
following URL:

Good luck with the lens hunt.

Cheers,
       Clive
