Can anyone explain just how a Noblex COULD have interchangeable lenses?  I
have a Noblex 150 and the size of the drum is a fixed dimension and that
relates directly to the Nodal point on the 50mm lens.  Change the lens and
you change the nodal point and you change the drum diameter.  Maybe I am
missing something but it does make me wonder...
