No idea, I'm afraid but it will be interesting to find out your thoughts about it when you have had time for a trial run.

I have two as well as a few other Lord cameras including IVB. Nice cameras. Hard to find the other available lenses. I've only seen one set on eBay in 4 years.

Curt, Lord and Lordomat are different companies though, aren't they. The Lord was Japanese and became Topcon while the Lodomat was one of a group of cameras made in Germany.

Yep. I have two Lordomats (as well as Lordon and Lordonar lenses) and a Lordox, all from Leidolf Wetzlar in Germany. As well, I have 2 Lord IVB and a Lord 5D from Okaya Optical Works in Japan. Just a similar name, but both are excellent cameras. Glad you pointed out the difference, I'd forgotten.

I'd already found out these 2 companies were different but I am looking at a Lord right now, Okaya made some nice ones as well.

There also had been a "Lord" and a "Lord Super" made by an unknown Czech company in the 1950`s. But these are very simple ( and very rare ) metal cameras with telescopic lens for 127 film. I have both somewhere in a drawer, in poor condition with missing leather, waiting for repair.
