 Horseman VH 6x9cm Cameras   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
According to a Horseman data sheet I have from 1986, the flange to focus distance for infinity for the Horseman 65mm f7 Super ER is 70.6mm.
Horseman made a slightly recessed board (~5mm) that came as standard equipment with the 65mm, 75mm, 90mm, 105mm and 120mm lenses.
I picked the Horseman because it was pretty inexpensive (mine is a older 980) and makes a nice compact and lightweight package that is very quick to set up (one complaint of mine with view cameras even after using them for almost 20 years).

 Shutterbug: The Horseman DigiWide
Horseman’s new DigiWide is a camera body designed to use Nikkor lenses on the front and a single shot digital medium format back at the rear, providing the ability to obtain true wide angle performance digitally.
To field test just what the Horseman DigiWide can do it was necessary, in addition to obtaining one of the first cameras produced, to bring together a top professional whose work demands wide angle photography, as well as a current SLR digital back which has support for battery operation in the field.
Besides frequently requiring the use of a wide angle lens, architecture is a subject that often demands that vertical perspective is not distorted, a usual result using a lens with a wide view.

 THE INTERNATIONAL HORSEMAN THIEF POUTER CLUB
Working and flying Horseman thief pouters have a general, recognizable type, but breeding them to fit a rigid show standard is not necessarily a traditional approach to the breed.
Horseman thief pouters are recognized by their upright stance, upright, roundish crop, relatively long legs, and last, but certainly not least, their ability to seduce other pigeons back to their home loft.
Like most Horseman pouters, racing homers are selected primarily for their performance with little regard to appearance so they too vary from one loft to the next and from one strain to another.

 Horseman Pouters
Having shown Horseman for the past six years and also flown birds around Glasgow for over 30 years, I think it gives me some right to establish the bird and I would gladly welcome any sensible disagreeing correspondent.
I have read everything I can find on Blowers and what I find is that the German and Dutch Croppers appear to be in the forefront of the Blowers and man's crossbreeding over the years has produced all shapes and sizes, the most prominent breeds debatably being the Norwich Cropper.
We all criticise at some time or another and I will say that the Horseman gets its fair share so I am therefore putting my views in writing and can assure everyone my birds are used workers around the cities.

 Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Opinions differ on whether the first horseman, riding the white horse represents the Antichrist, or the False Prophet, but the general consensus of conservative Biblical scholars is that he is the Antichrist, in light of the seemingly peaceful work of the Antichrist seen in the first half of his rule.
The fourth horseman (on the pale, or sickly horse, which may be the source of the notion of "pestilence" as a separate horseman) is explicitly named Death.
An alternate interpretation holds the first Horseman to represent War or the Antichrist, the second to represent Pestilence (sometimes called Plague), while the third and fourth riders remain Famine and Death, respectively, though this interpretation is often considered flawed by some.

 Horseman LD Review
Building further on this basic idea, the large format camera manufacturer Horseman released early 2006 a model called Horseman LD that was designed specifically to bring the flexibility of LF shooting to DSLR owners, including back movements like shift.
The design appears to be very similar to the classical Horseman rail cameras, except for the rear standard that was modified to enable the mounting of a DSLR.
Put briefly, the amount of time and thinking spent on each of these shots was about the same, but the shear simplicity of the digital workflow made it a lot easier to achieve reasonably pleasing results, even if film is still a good contender in terms of details.

 The Headless Horseman (horror character)
Langhorn had the idea to impersonate the Headless Horseman, and frighten Jennings away just as Ichabod Crane was in the novel, but while waiting for him, he was beset upon by another Headless Horseman, who threw his head at him.

As he discovered a Headless Horseman costume in Bullinger's possession, the ghost of the real Horseman took offense at his name being used for criminal purposes and appeared to Bullinger and his men, scaring them all into having heart attacks.

I respectfully disagree with you, and disagree strongly.
"Comes a Horseman" is a very fast-fast, thrilling novel and the times it "slows down" to expound on characters or delve into an interesting aspect of history or technology only makes it richer.
There is the slightest hint that the two FBI partners may have romantic inclinations, but for the most part their caring for one another is more in line with the way partners in the law enforcement business bond with each other.
