Lensboard, lens board or lens standard means just the board which covers the front of a folding camera. This board has a hole in the middle in which usually a lens or a lens/shutter combination is mounted. Often the board is mounted between poles, adjustable in its height. More sophisticated constructions allow several other lensboard movements to allow optimization of the sharpness plane and geometry of images.
