Both Schneider and Rodenstock make focusers for about
$400 list. Schneider's will take up to their 90mm
super angulon. I believe Rodenstock's will take up to
their 155mm. You can always put other lenses in them.
I have a 120mm symmar in one made for a 65mm. I have
to adjust for the distance difference. Also, they all
are identical in terms of 'throw', so the longer the
lens you use, the farther away the close focus is.
Peter Gowland used to make a generic one with 1"
throw, but it turned the lens. I don't know if he
still makes it.
