So I think the Technika IV is pretty much unusable with a 90 - and that's my go-to lens.The Classic Linhof Master Technika has been available since 1973. And the struts will also prevent any side shifts of the front. The worst problem is that when using the 90mm lens, the rise/fall knob is unreachable, behind the struts. 1988931, body, VG, shutter working, elements, G-VG, some internal haze, and Carl Zeiss Sonnar f/4.8.

When you've dropped the bed on the IV and tilted back the lensboard to maintain it's parallel relationship to the film, the track is still tilted forward (from the bed drop) and rising or falling movements will throw the focus out. A Linhof Super Technika IV 6x9 Rangefinder Camera,1956-64, brown, serial no. But it doesn't work that way on the IV or V. When y ou do that with a Technika III, the rise/fall track of the front standard tilts back as well. On both the IV and the V, you drop the bed and tilt back the front standard to photograph downwards. That recess makes seeing and manipulating the f/stops and shutter more difficult. That means that you will need a recessed lens board to use a 90mm. The back of the camera is thicker than the III. It came with only the 80mm Planar, but had a cam for all three Zeiss lenses, and the rangefinder is. But there are problems, especially if you use a 90mm lens. But here is my beloved Technika 70 with most of its lenses. It avoids the fussy and overcomplicated lever of the V. And unlike the Technika V, the IV still has a simple knob for the rise/fall movement of the front standard. The camera is in excellent cosmetic condition with normal finish wear for 60 years. The geared focus and all movements are super smooth.

This camera just received an extensive CLA and is functioning perfectly. 1958 Linhof Technika IV with Schneider 150mm f/5.6 Symmar cammed lens. On the positive side, the camera is noticeably more solid and stable than the III. 1958 Linhof Super Technika IV 4x5 Full Serviced Restored. I have very mixed feelings about the Technika IV. When I broke that camera, I purchased a Technika IV to replace it. I used a Linhof Technika III for decades. Problematic successor to the Technika III.
